DETACH beyond the body. Exhibition by Tiziano Magni

Varese (VA)

The images depict nude bodies marked by simple strips of paper tape, essential elements that push the viewer to question the meaning of the image and the spiritual dimension of the subject. The exhibition, titled 'DETACH beyond the body', invites us to go beyond purely physical perception to approach a more intimate and reflective reading of the female figure.
