"The wall is possibly the best thing about the work, shimmering dark purple, orange and red with a Rothko-like intensity through Michael Hulls’s lighting design, narrowing or enlarging the space as it moves forward or back."
– Roslyn Sulcas, New York Times
"Lit by Michael Hulls's magnificent lighting"
– Sarah Crompton, The Telegraph
