"On a personal level Claire Roberts' work has always had an immediate and lasting resonance for me. Her figures seem to live in futuristic fantastical worlds but they look back to the early Renaissance and the atmosphere of the fresco. They are rich in pattern and alive with a sort of re-animated Frankenstein-like energy that buzzes out of the picture.
For me she symbolises the ethos of Peacock, which gives the artist space and time to create. In 'Busy Lizzie' she has harnessed the procedural method of printmaking to her own ends and created a spectacle that is vividly alive and ultimately moving."
