States of Transition, a new body of work by Perspicere

‘States of Transition’ — a solo exhibition by Perspicere at Saatchi Gallery
London, UK — Opening 21st May 2026

Each piece is built by wrapping thread around nails, layer upon layer, colour upon colour, until a photorealistic portrait emerges from thousands of intersecting lines.

Perspicere—Latin for "to see through"—scrutinizes the very act of seeing clearly. Veil-like forms and shifting surfaces complicate the act of seeing, while the work itself changes depending on distance, showing us that perception is fluid and unreliable. This new series turns toward the uncertain space between one state of being and another, between presence and absence, visibility and concealment. Meaning is not immediately given but

gradually uncovered, inviting an active process of looking, questioning, and reconstructing what is seen.
