Fact or fable

This exhibition features material from Elliott’s private collection. The images inspire, motivate, and inform his photography and life.

“I am a self-confessed visual glutton and have always had an insatiable appetite for images.

Many years ago my collection of books, magazines, photographs, and brochures swamped my life, so I started to keep only the stuff that really excited me, and I religiously stuck them into Spirax 595A, A4 Notebooks, 240 pages in each one.

My collection is fast approaching 600 of them.”

John Elliott
