A Toast to the Grapes

Formstorming, Semiotics, and the Cultural Evolution of Grapes

This project explores the boundless adaptability of grapes—a fruit deeply embedded in human history, mythology, and daily rituals. Using formstorming and semiotic analysis, the objective was to reimagine grapes in diverse cultural, historical, and symbolic contexts. From antiquity to modern-day gastronomy, from Bacchic feasts to New Year's wishes, this project examines the shapeshifting nature of grapes and their influence across civilizations.
