Scentarium
Laura Pelizzari

The Scentarium installation connects collective and personal memories, emotions, identity and travels through time. With every breath, we inhale olfactory information. We can easily and unexpectedly find ourselves in the days of our childhood just by smelling a certain scent. Only through the sense of smell it is possible to recreate spontaneous almost forgotten memories in particularly high intensity. The Scentarium is a walk-in archive and serves as a portal to our biography and emotions. This is done by a total of twenty different smells. They are inside of porcelain drops hanging in a net. You are invited to explore the Scentarium and to go on a journey through your own history.
