Experimental perfume workshop ‘you smell like grass, static, and a kiss’

About Experimental perfume workshop ‘you smell like grass, static, and a kiss’

This experimental perfume workshop invites participants to explore emotional memory focusing on scent as the point of access. After a lesson on perfume building and the ways in which olfactive signals interact with the brain, we will work to create perfumes inspired by our memories of someone. Each participant should come prepared with an idea of who they want to develop the perfume around. In addition, participants should have a notebook, pen, and water. Optionally, participants can bring an object of the person they are thinking of or a short piece of writing (it will be for personal use only). All materials will be provided. The workshop is led by Emilia Gonzalez Salgado (b. 1996 Ecuador). Through sculpture and installation, Emilia explores place, embodiment, and dislocation. By incorporating gesture and scent, she creates pieces that ask you to lean, touch and ingest, to activate and occupy them. Participants can reach out directly to Emilia with any questions: emiliagonzalezsalgado@gmail.com To receive a concession ticket, please email Emilia to request a promo code.
