Susceptible

In Tinos, Greece, the Aegean breeze is filled with the balsamic, invigorating notes of eucalyptus trees, which thrive throughout the island. A hilltop monastery echoes the silvery tinkling of votive offerings, carried by the warm Mediterranean wind. The air is thick with the scent of beeswax candles, mingled with incense, permeating every corner of this sacred place.

This monastery is one of the most precious in the Greek Orthodox tradition, attracting pilgrims who come on their knees, giving thanks for the miracles received. Suscepto pays homage to the sacredness and unique mystery of this place, where an impenetrable silence welcomes countless inexplicable phenomena. The Latin phrase EX VOTO SUSCEPTO – “to undertake an ex voto” – expresses this spiritual offering, a thank you for the blessings granted
