ORACLE: Extra Virgo’s sensory exhibition at IED Firenze

Date

07 September 2026

A sensory exhibition where fragrance meets art and digital imagination.

On the occasion of Pitti Fragranze 2026, IED Firenze and Extra Virgo launch a new collaboration dedicated to olfactory culture and its connections with art and design.

The partnership begins with ORACLE, a sensory and immersive exhibition inspired by one of the most representative fragrances created by the Florence-based botanical perfumery house.

The exhibition brings together two visual works. The first is a short film directed by Giovanna Gorassini and starring Kristina Bazan: a dreamlike story set in the landscapes of Puglia and inspired by the ancient symbolism of the Goddess. The second is a new video installation by digital artist Ricardo Ponce, also known as Pixel Flux, translating the fragrance’s olfactory notes into shapes, colours and moving images.

Opening
Friday, September 11, 2026, from 7:00 to 10:30 PM
RSVP: info@extravirgo.com

Ex Teatro dell’Oriuolo
Via dell’Oriuolo 31, Florence

Exhibition open from September 11 to 18, 2026
Monday to Saturday, from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM
