From Emily Leon's liner notes:
"This album is a work of spirals, a continuous curve traced by a point moving round a fixed point in the same plane while steadily increasing (or diminishing) its distance from this. Bishop’s breath is a key component to the album, an active yet disembodied third player whilst Menestres’ double bass often sounds like tree limbs feeding back on themselves, how we know wind makes itself heard."

Five-star review from Free Jazz Blog:

"[...] One of my must-own recommendations for the year...it demonstrates the breadth of interaction between two talented musicians, each performer pushing themselves and their instruments to occasional extremes. Ink draws its inspiration from free improvisation, visual art, poetry, outsider art, and threads tenuous connections that continuously strengthen and rewrite themselves upon further listening... I was reminded of the great Joseph Jarman and Famadou Don Moye duo album Egwu-Anwu, one of the finest duo albums that likewise showcases silence as something of a shared instrument."
