PARADISO LIMITED EDITION
PIGMENTARIUM x MICHAELA FENKL
The sea surface flashes between the pine trunks. The hot summer air is filled with the sounds of cicadas and the blooming oleanders sway slowly above the surface of a pool. One that is here just for you. Along with a glass of gin and refreshing citrus on the rim. The carefree days of Pigmentarium Paradiso perfume are back. Aromas of grapefruit, juniper, patchouli, and vetiver.
We are today, and for this summer only, introducing a strictly limited edition of the citrus-spicy fragrance created in collaboration with visual poet Michaela Fenkl. The perfume bottle and box have been transformed into a separate art object, connected to one of the symbols of carefree holidays, the written text.
Michaela's work, full of emotion, searching and finding, is characterized by the visual form of words. She writes the whole text or parts of it in a particular handwriting on paper or anything, including fabric or human skin, with a tattoo needle. She also publishes in a visual form. She is the author of poetry collections, clotheslines that work with the self-expression of a young generation, and several texts on her own body.
Michaela Fenkl, a visual poet, has created a collectable series of Paradiso perfumes for Pigmentarium.
Communicating feelings on a perfume bottle? A declaration of summer, love, contemplation. An offer to play to anyone who picks up the bottle or the box. Creating for the Pigmentarium brand was not only a challenge for Michaela, but it was also a wish come true. Because it is the fragrances that stimulate her imagination and help her mind to travel and recreate memories.
Therefore, in the beginning, there was just a scent and a clean sheet of paper.
Thoughts linked to a summer night by the seaside led Michaela to formulate a manifesto in which she expressed feelings inspired by the Paradiso fragrance...
Play-on words and feelings are transferred to the box, whose prototype has been covered by messages and opinions. This design was transferred to the bottles and boxes of the limited collector series of Paradiso perfume in its precise graphic form, including the main slogan: "Paralysed by my own paradise".
