Booth Event – Book Signing: Yolanda del Amo

“Archipelago” (2004–2014) presents a photographic meditation on human relationships as a series of emotional islands—separate, fragile, and bound by an invisible geography. Working within the tradition of tableau photography, Yolanda del Amo creates carefully composed, narrative-rich scenes reminiscent of a tableau vivant.

Each image is methodically arranged, with precise attention to gesture, colour, and spatial relationships. At once intimate and strikingly distant, each tableau examines contradictions within relationships across countries, generations, and genders, reflecting on how a deep longing for closeness can coexist with an equally strong desire for individuality, and how intimacy is shaped, strained, and ultimately defined by social and psychological distance.

Yolanda del Amo (b. 1967, Madrid) is a photographic artist based in New York City. Her award-winning work has been exhibited internationally and is included in major collections.
