Invisible Men

Work on paper by Patricia Kaersenhout
So who is actually invisible? Someone who remains unnoticed or someone who has no desire to be seen?
What does ‘being invisible’ actually mean?
Inspired by Invisible Man, Ralph Ellison’s only novel,
artist Patricia Kaersenhout set out in search of the invisible men in her life. On the pages of an old biology textbook with its illustrations of innards, skin structure, hair, the digestive system, and so on, she tried to visualize the invisible: from spirit to flesh.
