We are pleased to present a new series of etchings by Sean Pearl, shown by London-based gallery Santi. This presentation marks the first instalment of an ongoing partnership between Minor Attractions and Rise Art.

Last year, Rise Art collaborated with Minor Attractions on an extended online presentation. With curators including Marcelle Joseph and Hector Campbell, we drew together a concise selection of works from its seventy-plus exhibiting galleries, offering context and critical reflection alongside.

That collaboration now extends into something more sustained: a year-round series of focused presentations, each produced with a single gallery. This month, Santi – a new addition to London's scene, just past its first anniversary – presents five new prints by Florida-born, London-based artist Sean Pearl.

Small in scale but dense with symbolism, each etching pulls from the long history of image-making, layering recognisable motifs into a set of restless, charged, and self-aware prints.

Rise Art shines a light on today's most dynamic and culturally significant artists, collaborating directly with a curated roster of emerging, mid-career, and established creatives worldwide.

Santi is a contemporary art gallery founded in 2025 by Santiago Steib. The gallery is based in London on the lower ground floor at 96 Robert Street, NW1 3QP.

Minor Attractions is an annual art fair held during Frieze week at The Mandrake hotel in London. Blending contemporary art with performance and nightlife, the fair has quickly established itself as a catalyst in the city's emerging art scene while carving out a place on the international commercial circuit.
