ArtScience Body, 2019
perfume
‘ArtScience Body’ is a perfume that bends notions of what is considered to be ‘perfume’ by fusing it with what people often attribute to DIY electronic music and media art: burnt electronics, hot metal, the inside of an old speaker, tobacco, and soldering.
In the context of an exhibition, a group of performers wears the perfume; exploring grouping through scent; taking examples from nature, with notions of pack mentality.
It is also an investigation into spreading scent throughout an architectural space; as well as how to claim a space through scent.
Become part of the ArtScience Body with the iii Sensory Kit #2:
This kit will provide you with the materials needed to create the perfume yourself; already in suitable dilutions, quantities, and with pipettes and a bottle for your finished perfume. Set up a miniature perfume lab at home, smell the materials separately, observe how they change when blended together, as well as over time.
