    I visited the museum for the second time. This time, it was richer in artworks, and the temporary exhibition by Robbie Williams really made a difference, raising strong awareness around the topic of mental health. It’s an exhibition that sparks a lot of reflection on current issues.

    Enjoyed this museum more than I expected. Definitely worth the visit and experience. It's not huge, but it is immersive in parts and contemporary art is inspiring. Go, check it out.

    Personal experiences can vary, but many visitors find the museum surprisingly engaging. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it a great spot for both art aficionados and those just looking to enjoy something different.

“It is the projection of a childhood memory. Its large leaves form a shelter under the sun, away from reality, just like those of the imaginary jungle that grows in the room of a child who seeks escape.”
