By stealing fire from the Gods, Prometheus brought new passions, new enthusiasms and new artistic approaches to our world.
Blessed by fire, these artisans have changed the face of our world using the power Prometheus had given them. Anywhere in the world, with an unexpected way. With fire flowers in their hands and with the objects they distilled from fire that reflect their poetic lives. Even their pale memories will not survive. But everything they produced from fire, the tools that have changed human history, the talismans and all mystic signs will live for ages... |
At almost every stages of human history, man has looked for the assistance of magic objects called talismans or amulets to defy evil forces.
Charms with letters, numbers or abstract signs have survived to this day. Even the modern religions with a single god have their own symbols. One of these symbols we find in almost every culture and faith for thousands of years...
It’s the figure of eye...
|
It was believed that, this eye saw all the wickedness in the world and removed poverty and ignorance.
When Horus opened its eyes the world was enlightened, when he closed, it became dark. From Egypt, the eye amulet had spread to the Mediterranean, Middle East and Europe. The fear of being the target of the evil eye is a very strong emotion |
