Monserrat Castera

Promoter and cultural producer Castera is the founder of cultural projects agency MOMOROOM, based in Mexico City. Ahead of Soho House opening this summer, she writes a guide to her home city on p32. “Saying beautiful things about my city was a deeper exercise than thought,” she says. “I enjoyed it a lot.”

Ajesh Patalay

Patalay is a freelance journalist and contributing editor for the FT’s How to Spend It He profiles artist Yinka Ilori on p110. “Interviewing Yinka over Zoom underlined the value of coordinating what you wear with your o ice. His shelves were pink and orange and he wore pink and orange. was impressed. Here’s to sporting more magenta.”

Claire Rothstein

Rothstein regularly photographs for Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue and captures Michèle Lamy at 180 House on p50. “Michèle epitomises female empowerment, glamour and that all-round cool factor,” she says. “Jumping up on a sideboard at 180 while everyone was having brunch was a literal high point. My kind of woman.”

Justin French

French is a worldrenowned photographer whose work has appeared in i-D Dazed and the Wall Street Journal He photographs Jeremy O. Harris at Soho House New York (which turns 20 this year) on p40: “Working with Jeremy, as always, felt familial. He possesses a comfort and confidence that is so important when capturing portraits.”

Olive Pometsey

Pometsey is the features editor at e Face On p56, she interviews actor Andrew Sco – a headline speaker at April’s Soho Summit, powered by Porsche. “It was a joy to speak to the ‘Hot Priest’ himself about finding fun in every project,” she says. “He is one of the most diversely talented actors today and, amazingly, still incredibly down to earth.”

“Immersive” has become the buzziest of buzz words to describe a show, exhibition or art happening. Not since the u erance of “goblin mode” or “vibe shi ” has a term been so overused by so many, trying to impress one another with their (loose) grip on the zeitgeist. Whether it’s a visit to David Hockney’s Lightroom gallery in King’s Cross, London, or trying to take a nonchalant selfie while standing in Yayoi Kusama’s InfinityMirror Rooms at e Broad in Downtown Los Angeles, if The Big Art Show of the Month doesn’t promise an assault on your senses then the curator has probably already been sacked and replaced by a bot. Art is no longer only for looking at, it’s for experiencing. In 2023, the ‘Mona Lisa’ doesn’t just need to smile, she needs to reach out as a dancing hologram and sell you a tote bag designed by Bode. When planning our inaugural Soho Summit in partnership with our friends at Porsche – an extraordinary festival of ideas involving inspiring talks, creative makeathons, one-o screenings, a little tree planting and brand-new art experiences, held over three days in and around Soho Farmhouse, Oxfordshire – we wanted enveloping, whiteknuckle immersion. Yet immersion for our members and their lucky guests doesn’t in Stockholm to highlight the local style vanguard (p58), an insider’s guide to Mexico City forged and worked on in anticipation of our first House due to open in Latin America (p32), plus news of an improved and refreshed Soho House Festival taking place at Gunnersbury Park, London, this July (p11). All that, plus we meet some of the new members
