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. The book presents for the first time the essay ‘Cathedral’. Part memoir, part literary/sonic investigation, it meditates on the vocal texture of a Hollywood actor.
