“Tanya arranged the space so that the sitters, and Tanya’s works in progress, faced directly into the gallery once the double doors were opened. This was an irresistible lure for hundreds of members of the public who had the chance to talk to Tanya and her sitter of the day, and also to pick up some drawing materials and join in.”Marcus Dickey Horley, Curator of Access Projects, Tate Modern '…impertinent in scale and wonderfully constructed' Sandy Nairne, Director of the National Portrait Gallery '…groundbreaking and really absolutely necessary' Jude Kelly, Artistic Director of the Southbank Centre
