The House of Shadow
About This Museum
People don't come to The House of Shadow for grand masterpieces; they come to have a quiet conversation with light, form, and memory. Tucked away on Orfeos Street in Xanthi, this isn't your typical art museum. It's a place where installations play with perception, making you question what is real and what is merely a trick of the eye. You leave feeling like you've unraveled a small, beautiful secret about the nature of seeing.
Collection Highlights
A room where your own shadow is cast ahead of you before you even enter, and an ethereal sculpture made entirely of suspended, shimmering black threads that seems to dissolve as you walk around it.
Visitor Information
It's easy to miss the unassuming entrance on Orfeos 33, so keep your eyes peeled. The intimate scale means it rarely feels crowded, making it a perfect escape from the bustling city outside.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a beautifully restored neoclassical townhouse, its crisp white walls and high ceilings provide the perfect, serene canvas for the dramatic interplay of light and dark within.
