Diverge & See is a solo exhibition by locally based autistic artist Roberto Picciau. The exhibition is the culmination point of a series of workshops held across Newcastle upon Tyne and Gateshead with neurodivergent adults.
The exhibition features three wall based pieces: an intricate drawing, a collage and digital moving image on a 50” flat screen monitor. The work uses ‘doodling’ as a catalyst for revealing the relationships between neurodivergent attention, processing, and the hierarchies of drawing.
This exhibition was funded by Arts Council England. Exhibition open: September 8th – 18th 2026.
