Published by Corriere della Sera – Torino on September 12, 2018, this article presents “DéVoilées”, the solo exhibition by Alessandro Vasapolli hosted at the Auditorium of the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in Turin. On view from September 13 to 27, the show featured fifteen large-format photographs selected from a broader series of twenty-seven works.
The images portray the female figure from behind, enveloped in soft light and translucent veils that create a suspended, introspective atmosphere. Vasapolli’s approach—developed through a highly personal visual language—aims to evoke the fragility of memory and the subtle tension between presence and disappearance. The result is a series of photographs that appear closer to painting than to traditional portraiture, where perception is guided by suggestion rather than revelation.
By avoiding direct identification and leaving the subject partially obscured, DéVoilées invites the viewer into a space of ambiguity and contemplation, where each image becomes a meditation on intimacy, time, and the silent complexity of the visible.
