About Tacapae

Tacapae is a cultural project rooted in southern Tunisia, where contemporary art meets centuries-old olive groves. 

Tacapae is a limited-edition olive oil and art project founded by French-Tunisian artist Faouzi Khlifi, known as eL Seed. Born from a desire to reconnect with land, heritage, and craft, it brings together artists, designers, and makers to create collectible objects and experiences rooted in southern Tunisia. At its core is an exceptional olive oil produced in Gabès, home to the world’s only sea oasis. Each edition, ranging from 500 to 1,000 bottles, is reimagined by a different renowned artist, curated by eL Seed and given full creative freedom to design the bottle’s visual identity. Through collaboration and storytelling, Tacapae transforms olive oil into a platform for contemporary art, resulting in bottles meant to be kept, cherished, and enjoyed.
