VENETIA INITIATIVES
Venetia Edits
A space that unfolds as both a platform and a publication, a quiet extension of my sensibility, where art, design, fragrance, taste and literature meet.
Season Highlights
Venetia Edits Winter Edition 2026
9th November, 2026
As winter unfolds, New York's art season comes fully alive. I move through it slowly, along the townhouses and avenues of the Upper East Side, pausing where something holds me. This edition brings a new essay from the Journal, on Thea Djordjadze's A well of night at the Sprüth Magers gallery, and my highlights of early November.
The Fouli
The Five Senses Summer Edition 2026
27th July, 2026
This edition traces the journey of fouli (Jasminum sambac) from the marble balconies of Greece to the fragrant courtyards of Morocco, following a flower that has travelled across cultures and centuries. Through the five senses—sight, smell, touch, taste and sound—it explores how fouli became a symbol of ritual, hospitality and memory. More than a blossom, it is a quiet thread connecting places, people and the enduring beauty of everyday life.
Quiet the Noise
The Five Senses Winter Edition 2025
15th December, 2025
There are moments that cannot be defined, only felt. On the ridge between dusk and dawn, when fog softens the light and the world becomes briefly weightless, seeing becomes sensing. The Five Senses winter edition invites a pause; a sanctuary of textures, echoes, aromas, flavours, and visions that stir the senses and soften the world’s relentless pace.
Featuring Ruth Asawa, Hamnet directed by Chloé Zhao, 'The Room of Strength' by Nikomachi Karakostanoglou, Perfumer H and more.
