RUINART

Conversations

with Nature

Ruinart ’ s annual Conversations with Nature program

reflects a long - term vision informed by the Maison ’ s

commitment to art , design and sustainability .

Nature becomes subject , raw material and creative

partner in the permanent visual and sound installations

of Swiss artist Julian Charrière in the Maison ’ s UNESCO -

listed chalk cellars ; in the champagne vineyard - based

works of US artist Sam Falls ; and in Entre Nous , a sculp -

ture by French artist Lélia Demoisy in the gardens of

Ruinart ’ s 4 Rue des Crayères location in Reims .

Whether they are exploring the geological memory of

the chalk quarry cellars , allowing natural elements to

imprint the surface of their works or revealing the

invisible links between living organisms , each artist

offers a distinctive perspective shaped by close obser -

vation of ecosystems , and invites visitors to reflect on

the compelling environmental issues of our time .

Since 2019 , as part of the ten - year countdown to its

third centenary , every year Ruinart has unveiled a new

creative project in Reims that combines innovation

with creativity in this spirit of sustainability .

King ’ s Crossing by Sam Falls

raised in Vermont creates works of art deeply rooted

in nature His art explores the connection between

the viewer and the natural world drawing inspiration

from flora and fauna His canvases are shaped by the

environments in which they are created and convey

a strong sense of belonging to a place and to the

passage of time
