VEE SPEERS - Solo Exhibition
March – April, 2026 – Copenhagen
In March 2026, In The Gallery is proud to present a solo exhibition of internationally acclaimed photographer Vee Speers. The exhibition brings together a carefully curated selection of works spanning several of her most significant series: Dystopia, Botanica, Thirteen, Transcendence (Gaia), and a work from her recent series The King’s Court.
Vee Speers is known for her meticulously constructed portraiture, images that exist somewhere between cinema and painting, reality and staged narrative. Through her distinctive visual language, she explores themes of identity, transformation, vulnerability, and inner strength.
The exhibition presents works from Dystopia, a powerful series in which youth is portrayed at a moment of tension,suspended between fragility and defiance. The figures appear theatrical yet introspective, confronting the viewer with a quiet but unmistakable presence.
In contrast, Botanica offers a more contemplative and poetic dimension. Here, botanical subjects are isolated and elevated, echoing classical still-life traditions while suggesting cycles of growth, decay, and renewal. The series introduces a subtle meditation on nature and transience within Speers’ broader exploration of transformation.
From Thirteen, Speers captures the delicate threshold between childhood and adolescence. The young subjects are portrayed with dignity and psychological depth, embodying a moment of becoming, where innocence and self-awareness coexist.
The exhibition also includes Gaia from the Transcendence series, a work that evokes spiritual elevation and symbolic rebirth. Draped in vibrant color and surrounded by floral elements, the figure appears suspended between worlds, embodying both strength and serenity.
Finally, a striking piece from The King’s Court, her recent body of work, introduces a contemporary reinterpretation of authority and staged portraiture. Referencing historical court painting while maintaining Speers’ signature theatrical aesthetic, the work reflects on power, presence, and constructed identity.
Together, these series create a compelling dialogue about resilience, transformation, and the layered complexity of the human condition. Cinematic yet intimate, Vee Speers’ images invite viewers into carefully composed worlds that feel both timeless and emotionally immediate.
This exhibition marks the beginning of a new collaboration between Vee Speers and In The Gallery Copenhagen.
