"Rhude's portrait of a cod fish, Post Cod (2016) becomes a sort of universal human self-portrait, a portrait of not only a dying industry, but a portrait of the murderer, as the figure looming in the cods dead eye warns of a bleak future."
Sarah Fillmore

Chief Curator Art Gallery of Nova Scotia
"The paintings don't possess the same undercurrent of menace that make Colville's work so well received, but the unsuspecting viewer may be surprised to learn of the genesis of apparently innocuous scenes".
