What They're Saying
Critics Review
‘Colour exists only in our minds; Bruce’s genius lies in his secret knowledge of the spiritual energy of photons. His work doesn’t just light up the world, it illuminates our souls.’ - Kevin McCloud, Designer, writer and presenter of Channel 4’s Grand Designs
‘Given that light is his medium, it is perhaps fitting that an abiding quality of Bruce Munro’s work is its ‘lightness’. It is not always easy for artists to remain playful and experimental, as their work grows in ambition and scale. Among the many things to admire Bruce and his work for is that he has managed to do so.’ - Alexander Sturgis
