Art Ambassador – Bruce Munro 

Bruce’s relationship with Dorothy House began in 2021 with his generous donation of the Firefly light installation to the Winsley estate grounds. This relationship grew in 2023 with a doubling in size of the Firefly woods; opened as part of a Royal visit from Her Royal Highness Princess Anne, who accepted a Firefly in memory of her mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II. 

Bruce is best known for immersive large-scale light-based installations inspired largely by his interest in shared human experience. Recording ideas and images in sketchbooks has been his practice for over 40 years. By this means he has captured his responses to stimuli such as music, literature, science, and the world around him for reference, reflection, and subject matter.   

This tendency has been combined with a liking for components and an inventive urge for reuse, coupled with career training in manufacture of light. As a result, Munro produces both monumental, temporary experiential artworks as well as intimate story-pieces.
