Suscepto

The salty Aegean breeze across the Greek island of Tinos carries devotional offerings from both man and nature. Amid bracing eucalyptus and mint softened by honey is an unexpected blend of frankincense, benzoin and sandalwood. That’s from the monastery at the top of the hill, filled with beeswax candles and hammered silver votives left in gratitude for miracles. Suscepto is a hymn to the supernatural sacredness of this place.
