Apophasis is a literary trick of mentioning something (xxx), but using a phrase like "not to mention xxx' or "we need not remind you of xxx". Thus the mentioning occurs despite the superficial statement to the contrary. I'm not quite sure how this works visually because something has to be put forward for any type of reference to occur. So some object or artistic element needs to stand in for the actual xxx, and this is more of a form of substitution.
