Alessandro Furchino Capria's 'Limehouse Flowers' Land at Saint Laurent Babylone
The Italian photographer makes his solo debut in a new Paris show.
Italian photographer Alessandro Furchino Capria is making a solo debut at Saint Laurent Babylone, located in Paris’ 7th arrondissement. Based between Milan and London, Capria garnered the attention of the fashion world through his earnest style, defined by layered references, harmonious compositions and natural balance.
Curated by YSL’s creative director Anthony Vaccarello, the exhibition showcases works from Capria’s 2020 series, titled Limehouse Flowers, where he returns to one of his most beloved subjects. The photographs look for meaning in urban landscapes and the very nature of photographic practice, as each flower appears as a hazy burst color.
With, as Rive Droite notes, “a sense of organic succession,” the artist carefully tends to his subjects in ways that feel spontaneous and deliberate at once. Through this floral aperture, Capria does more than capture transient beauty, but invites audiences into a game of perpetual play.
The exhibition is now on view through March 16, 2025 in Paris.
