Catalogue Note

“Mood and atmosphere matter in Hundley’s quasi-Wagnerian extravaganzas. His operatic collages hark back to nineteenth-century Romanticism, leaving visitors plenty of room to feel the tug of nostalgia for better times and places, imagined or otherwise” (David Pagel, ‘There is No More Firmament – Elliott Hundley Solo Exhibition’, Gallery Magazine, p. 22).
