What do you smell if you walk around the city? Savory fragrance from food stands and restaurants, green and fresh scent in a market, salty sea bleezes, or stinking garbage? How does your home smell like? What’s the source of the smell?
In this workshop, participants are going to explore the smells of daily lives and the environment, and extract smells from the materials.
(The material can be anything – from spices like cinnamon to materials like newspaper, but it has to have clear odor. )
