"Marea's only criterion was excellence. She put in long periods of thinking, planning and making each piece. There are no seconds: she ruthlessly culled her work and only showed about a third of what she made, carrying each chosen piece through to the last possible detail."

France, Christine. "Remembering Marea Gazzard", LOOK Magazine, Art Gallery of New South Wales 03/14, p.28
