Sam Jacob mined the extensive RIBA Collection to display original drawings and early writings that "trace the lineage of perspective from the Renaissance to present day." But the exhibition design, captured here in photos provided by RIBA, is also an active part of Disappear Here: Visitors are meant to become active participants in the space, whose "deceptive murals" and "playful architectural structures" were arranged according to the rules of perspective.

In Jacob's words, "This commission gave us the opportunity to explore how perspective has not only been used to illustrate the world but also how it creates and organises the world." Furthemore, "For this installation we wanted to create a space where visitors can experience the essentially illusory nature of perspective and question the making and breaking of rules."

Disappear Here is on disply until 7 October 2018.
