WITH ALL YOUR SENSES For Jeppe Hein, making and tasting champagne from the moment the grapes are harvested to the moment the wine sparkles in your mouth is a total sensory experience. He translated the essence of this into an art installation to be experienced RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW.
RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW is a participatory installation that appeals to the five senses and summons the four elements earth/soil, water/rain, air/wind and fire/sun which are essential to champagne making.
To renew the experience of nature and bring it into our daily life at the art fairs, Jeppe Hein uses fragments of matter and emotion that awaken our senses and connect us to ourselves and the world. This generous installation invites everyone to experience a small sensory epiphany.
Imagine A large mirror in the centre of the installation has a round opening for you to reach inside and take one of the four elements, which you can experience with your five senses.
You are invited to: See yourself in the mirror Touch the chalk. Listen to a delicate drop of essential oil falling into the palm of your hand. Smell the scent of the Chardonnay flower in the air. Taste a sun-ripened raisin.
