Jasmine from Grasse
Our project Jasmine from Grasse at the ESKER foundation has opened to today, in the project space. Open during building hours of the Atlantic Avenue Art Block (1011 – 9th Avenue S.E.).
October 31, 2016 – January 22, 2017
Jasmine from Grasse is an invitation to journey to a specific moment in someone else’s life through an olfactory encounter. Sans façon, with the help of Professor of Psychology, Glen Bodner, and Master Perfumer, Irene Schnell, have faithfully recreated the scent of a place and time drawn from the individual memories of six members from the Atlantic Avenue Art Block, generously allowing us to share in the intimacy of a long moment through its particular scent.
