Through this artistic collaboration, Maison Perrier-Jouët reveals a new way of considering the plant kingdom by imagining how plants communicate.
The artistic collaboration
Maison Perrier-Jouët was founded in 1811 by Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and Rose-Adélaïde Jouët, a young couple united by their love of art and nature, and their singular vision of champagne. Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and his son Charles were keen botanists, a passion that inspired their progressive ideas on natural viticulture and vineyard management. Drawing on this legacy, the House has never ceased to question the complexity of the living world and the symbiosis between species.
Today, Perrier-Jouët is proud to unveil a collaboration with multidisciplinary Polish designer Marcin Rusak, stemming from a shared heritage centered on botany. As the descendant of flower-growers, botanical matter is central to Marcin Rusak’s creative practice. Since the beginning, his practice has been founded on inspiration drawn from nature and experimentation with new materials, resonating with the Art Nouveau ethos that inspires Maison Perrier-Jouët.

To improve our knowledge of the species with whom we share our ecosystem, we need to understand how they communicate.
Inspired by its botanical heritage, Maison Perrier-Jouët encourages us to question the complexity of the living world. For over a decade, the House’s collaborations with creative talents have helped illustrate and develop these reflections, in both prospective and contributive terms.
After having met with the scientific committee of Maison Perrier-Jouët in the House’s vineyards, Marcin Rusak focused his work on understanding the unique character of the Perrier-Jouët terroir, taking interest in the plants that play a key role in preserving their ecosystem. This led him to select three “hero plants”, which remain at the heart of the collaboration : the vine, European Birtwort and white clover.
