''Davey has made lovely frame-like paintings of rectangular forms on wooden surfaces. With one particular pastel example, employing the grain of the ground beneath, she achieves a curious chromatic tension''

Rebecca Geldard. TIME OUT. 9th August 2011.
Review of 'The Desirability of Things' at Bearspace

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Davey also works on panel, painting skilfully crafted rectangles with a border around them. The works are clean and in muted hues, and although they are arguably abstract, they are also figurative in the way they serve as portraits of the rectangles themselves."

Claire Prethus. LONDON FESTIVAL FRINGE. March 2011
