Renowned image alchemist Stephen Ellcock is a London-based curator, writer, researcher and online collector of images who has spent the last decade creating an ever-expanding virtual museum of art that is open to all via social media. His ongoing attempt at creating the ultimate social media 'Cabinet of Curiosities' has so far attracted more than 600,000 followers worldwide. He is also the author of All Good Things, The Book of Change, England On Fire, with text by Mat Osman, and Jeux de Mains, a collaboration with Cecile Poimboeuf-Koizumi.
'Visually overwhelming, profoundly uplifting ... astonishing ...
Ellcock's curation of images is a marvel of sympathy ... the book's
accompanying text marches you briskly through a magnificent number
of the world's mythologies, religions, philosophies, arts, and
sciences, drawing connections and noting similarities' - Julian
Gough, Irish Times
'Glorious ... there's great beauty here ... The text too is
engaging ... Only connect, said EM Forster; here's a mind-blowingly
beautiful way to do it' - The Times LUXX
