in knots
When the bReeze picks up on Santorini, only tradition can stand up to the notorious Aegean
winds. Thick, strong rope is manipulated by the islanders’ experienced hands, binding more than
just knots in the process. Not just for holding items in place on the island’s breathtaking verandas,
these knots also forever bind our soul to this dreamlike scenery. From child’s play in the narrow
alleys of Oia to impromptu rope ladders, and even to the knots we’ve tied ourselves into in daily
life, the knots on this rope bind reality to the innocence of our purest dreams.
