Wine in literature often connotes happiness and friendship. It is also a symbol of transformation, as grapes are transformed when they are fermented. The sculpture of “happiness and friendship” is inspired by this captured moment of celebration: when people clink glasses, say “cheers” – or in Italian “salute!” – the wine transforms according to the movement. The burgundy red wire mesh represents the identity of Italasia. The main materials are the empty wine bottles traded by Italasia. These bottles have been used to celebrate, they signify the happy moments that Italasia has its customers to share. With warm fairy lights and decorations, this art piece creates a sense of warm happiness for Christmas time, for everyone.
