This collection is a journey through the memory of the witch hunts and the historical persecution of sexual and gender dissidence. The collection draws a parallel between bodies marked as heretical and queer bodies, which for centuries have been punished, concealed, or ridiculed.
This dialogue with the past resonates in the present: the global rise of right-wing and far-right ideologies has reactivated hate-driven narratives that once again target, censor, and condemn diverse identities. Thus, the witch hunt is reincarnated in new forms of persecution that seek to push to the margins whatever does not conform to the norm.
"In Nomine Heretica" is a collective incantation: a coven that summons the heretics of yesterday and today to claim a future in which difference is not persecuted, but celebrated.
