About

The moment you open the door, a warm breeze from walls layered with long years seems to envelop the body. Giotto di Bondone's frescoes watch quietly, as if having passed through time itself, whispering in step with the visitor's footsteps. The oxidized colors filling the entire wall keep you from looking away, like stars shining even within the darkness of night. Upon walls of golden light that seem to burn like fire, a depiction unfolds before your eyes, as if divine grace flows down vertically. This is not merely an exhibition space, but a spiritual space where the dialogue between God and humanity still continues.
