| "Untitled (Smell)"
Wood, paint, metal, glass, Play-doh 6 x 5 x 9 inches 2005 |
| Smell is one of the senses that sharply links the object
emitting the odour to a specific memory of an object, place, person, or situation. In my piece I am interested in the manufactured childhood. I am dealing with memories and nostalgia. By presenting the smell of Play-doh in a pseudo-scientific situation, I hope to question our memories of childhood. How much of our childhood was constructed by our parents, the media, or society? How much of what we remember is a collaboration of what was and what we want it to be? |
