Description

In this second of a special two-parter on the work of Yosh Han, a scent artist known for her elaborate moving image landscapes and public sculptures, we talk about the matter of olfactory energetics. Yosh has a unique vantage on the global landscape of the fragrance industry, and her ongoing work to decolonise the fragrance Industry is the subject this time.

This episode is anchored in her work with the Scent Festival platform and her pursuit to address its "O" word terminology. But it also points out the greater systematic connections between Eurocentric fragrance naming, material sourcing, and capitalism, which impacts wealth and power dynamics in the fragrance industry.

Her collaboration of the senses in future-focused olfactory projects unveils multisensory experiences to better know our world, and ourselves.
