Mythic roots Fires of fear Visions and shadows Reclaiming the spell Enter the spell

Enter the spell

This exhibition unfolds through four interconnected rooms, each exploring a different dimension of the figure of the witch across history, culture and artistic representation. Rather than following a linear timeline, Witches Through Time is conceived as a cyclical journey, reflecting the recurring patterns through which fear, persecution, resistance and reappropriation have shaped the witch across centuries.

The map of the exhibition is structured as a pentacle, an ancient symbol traditionally associated with protection, balance and interconnected forces. Each point corresponds to one thematic room, while the central space remains closed to the public. This absence is intentional: the history of witchcraft does not progress neatly forward. Patterns repeat, return and transform over time, resisting linear conclusions. For this reason, the exhibition has no definitive center and no final resolution. Like the pentacle itself, the exhibition does not end, the fourth and last room does not close the narrative, but opens it again, inviting reflection on the persistence of these mechanisms in the present.
