Tokujin Yoshioka’s expression of Dom Pérignon Vintage 2009 – the luminosity of the year that is the soul of the champagne – is embodied in an artistic object, and on the shield of a limited edition coffret and bottle.     
 
The masterpiece: Prism
Tokujin Yoshioka presents Prism, a crystal installation that pays homage to the singular nature of Dom Pérignon Vintage 2009. As a celebration of light, this scenography is composed of three crystal blocks that embrace the champagne bottle at its center. From the dark center of the piece, light radiates outward, passing through transparent glass surfaces which refract the light and bring it to life in a spectrum of colors.
The artist explains that when tasting Dom Pérignon Vintage 2009, he felt the champagne as being the memory of light.
 
The limited edition:
As an expansion of his crystal installation, Tokujin Yoshioka reinterprets the Maison’s emblematic shield as a force emerging from the dark glass of the bottle: its vibrating energy and shimmering iridescence generate a dimensional, hologrammatic presence. In this powerful rendering, the shield evokes the sensory experience of tasting Dom Pérignon Vintage 2009 in all its light, its colors and emotion.
 
This new interpretation of the shield is reprised on the coffret along with the artist’s signature.
 
“Dom Pérignon empowers artists to reimagine its iconic codes through the lens of our personal aesthetic. For me it has been an inspiring and exhilarating experience,” says Tokujin Yoshioka.
 
 
Prism will be made-to-order by Baccarat – the oldest and greatest crystal manufacturer -  and available via Dom Pérignon Private Sales.
The Dom Pérignon edition by Tokujin Yoshioka will be available only in a limited copy for end-of-year 2017 in selected retail.
