2019. Series of kinetic objects

In her ongoing research and artistic projects relating to Smell, Elodie Pong considers the olfactory as a playful heterotopia, free from the hegemony of power and dominant discourses. Smell is a metaphor for the liquidity of our times.

Entering this conceptual Space of Smell is an invitation to embark on alternative imaginaries, to map perceptual territories where marginalized discourses and a sense of otherness can flourish.

Through this paradigm, Pong's work asks questions related to the transformation of the earth and power, trouble, and the nature of nature.
