In the exhibition “Perfume, Sculpture of the Invisible” at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, on view from 29 October to 23 November 2025, Elias Crespin presents the work Transparent Vision. Curated by Jérôme Neutres and organised by Maison Francis Kurkdjian, the exhibition explores how the invisible becomes perceptible through artistic experience.
Transparent Vision invites the visitor to consider vision not as simple contemplation but as an expanded encounter with space and light. Thirty two transparent glass tubes form a circular constellation around a suspended central ring that seems to pulse at the heart of the void. Each tube, gilded with gold leaf at its outer edge, captures light in subtle glimmers that create a quiet dialogue with the viewer. The fragile and nearly immaterial glass sets up a tension between the visible and the elusive, while the circular arrangement evokes both cosmic geometry and an intimate ritual of gathering multiplicity into a shared center.
