Sofia Cacciapaglia: Apparizione presents paintings on canvas and cardboard in which women — dancing, resting, whispering, casting spells — appear with the immediacy of apparitions, belonging to every era and none. Cardboard sourced from neighborhood shops brings an urgency and gestural quality distinct from Cacciapaglia's slower oil paintings, its camel-brown tone and inner structure adding a poetic trace beneath each brushstroke. Landscape works set the scene as sites of apparition — feminine, fleeting, and charged. The women never appear alone: contact between figures, their mutual support and collective presence, is at the heart of every composition.
