matali crasset: tasting memories

as part of her collection 'in vino veritas' which is currently on show at the MUDAC, lausanne,
crasset has designed 'tasting memories', a limited edition a blown glass vessel used
for enjoying wine. the edition of 50 pieces are each signed and numbered by crasset.

'what is wine, but a moment of sharing around the meeting of land, grapes and man.
'tasting memories' an object in which to put the moment into a memory and remember
the pleasant act of tasting. to know wine is like a succession of meetings, prepared
and memorized. each tasting is a stage, in which a new world opens. this is a new dimension
of pleasure in life, a bit like returning to intimacy with its affinities testing its limits,
as if we went from a third dimension to a fourth dimension.' - matali crasset
