For all these artists, surprise is an important element in their work.

As Nick Bodimeade puts it

'Good art is always surprising'.

George Buckland adds

'Surprise is what happens when you look under things, to the side of, on top of, and inside anything'.

Yu-lan Liu says

'Surprise is keeping the innocence of childhood'.

Lucy Soutter comments that

'The best surprises are ones you wouldn't even think to expect.'
