The Buckland Museum of Witchcraft and Magick is excited to announce a new art exhibit. The esteemed artist is Luciana Lupe Vasconcelos, an occult artist that resides in Teresópolis, Brazil. In 2021, Vasconcelos paired with the late, Darcillio Lima at the Buckland Museum for an exhibit called “Magia Protetora”. This exhibit was masterfully curated by the Stephen Romano Gallery, NYC. Vasconscelos now sets off on her own with her beautifully haunting “Espiritos Familiares”. Known for her unique creative process, Luciana enters a trance state to channel spiritual energies, resulting in mesmerizing and otherworldly artworks.
“Espiritos Familiares” is immersed in occult symbolism. Each and every piece is captivating and invites the viewer in to explore the labyrinth of her unconscious. Part scenes of Witchcraft by Salvator Rosa, and part sci-fi book covers of the late 1960’s, these images are soaked in a dark femme energy, and when the viewer spends enough time with these talismanic pieces, a certain type of illumination forms, a cosmic gnosis.
Join us at the Buckland Museum of Witchcraft and Magick to experience this stunning exhibit and delve into the mystical artistry of Luciana Lupe Vasconcelos. The exhibit, which contains over eighty pieces of artwork will be on display until January 2026. There will be a very limited number of posters to purchase, which features one of Vasconcelos’ pieces, Medusa, as well as t-shirts that also feature her artwork. These items will be available on-line or in the museum.
This exhibit is co-curated by Luciana Lupe Vasconcelos and Toni Rotonda, for the exhibit at The Buckland Museum of Witchcraft and Magick. A special “Thank you” to the ancestors, our visitors, and to Steven Romano for the introduction to her work.
