Thesis: Olfactory Practices: From Deodorization to Reodorization

We Are Societies Made of Societies

The lively and „smelly“ installation focuses on the symbiotic relationship between human and nonhuman where the main narrator is a pond that evokes an ecological history from which all primordial organisms may have come. Bluring the line betweek human and nature the pond encourages us to reimagine our relationships and potential change in the era of human exceptionalism.
