This exhibition brings together a series of glass projects around the archetypal form of the bottle Sometimes the bottle is complete to incorporate the ritual, and is no longer in charge of simply containing, but becomes a participant Simple attributes are enough to transform the bottle into another signification.
In other instances, a dialogue is established, and the bottle departs from its conventional status to become expansive and talkative in the image of wine.
These objects do not belong to the oenological realm, they are to be understood as interpretations of rituals of the symbolic of wine.
A publication will be made at the occasion of this exhibition.
"When in a state of drunkenness, Man is expansive: saying the truth which he could not do on an empty stomach escapes him. But wine is at his image and can not lie either. Since a couple of years, I am interested in the phenomenon of natural wine . As I researched the subject, I was surprised to discover that Rudolf Steiner, founder of antroposophy was the one to set the principles of biodynamicagriculture.
Knowledge, transmission and cultures are intimately linked."
