Perri MacKenzie: What Does an Oracle Look Like?

If I look at the night sky while aching with desire, do the constellations I draw bend towards my longing? What if this urgency, which feels so personal and interior, was actually a force out there that I’ve caught, like a cold?

What does an oracle look like? gathers essays and drawings made by Perri MacKenzie between 2020 and 2024, themed loosely around pottery painting and vocal expression. The drawings, rendered in splashy India ink and collage, range from expressive sketches to theatrical still lives and experimental bandes dessinées.
