OLFACTORY
WORKSHOPS
Workshops on what?!
As a professional perfumer, I offer workshops to raise awareness of smells and olfactory perception. I guide participants towards individual and collective practice, teaching them how to use their sense of smell as a tool for discovery and knowledge.
Tailor-made Experiences
Depending on the location and objectives of the workshop, the content, scenography, format and duration are adapted to allow participants to enjoy a unique and multidimensional journey in a shared moment.
A MultiSensory Experience
To smell is to enter into the dimensions of memory and the emotions attached to it; it is to connect with oneself, with our history and our imagination, and with our immediate environment, with others, and with the present moment, all at once.
Cognitive & Collective
The workshop encourages listening and cooperation. During the olfactory exploration, the expression of individual feelings enables collective learning. Thanks to the diversity of perceptions brought together, we enrich our mental representations together, reinforcing their dynamism.
Substance & Form
The teaching materials are designed to express the advances made in current research using consistent materials (zero virtual, only physical materials) through artistic media. The scientific approach taken throughout the workshop is a fundamental tool for developing the critical thinking skills needed to discern the nature of the different information we encounter and to reflect on it.
Life, matter & chemistry
Smell is our sense of direct contact with the environment at the molecular level. The physical and chemical nature of smells helps us understand the considerable importance of these interactions in living organisms. I invite participants to focus their attention on the language of invisible matter and to share their inspired imaginations, through ecological thinking, between the interior and exterior, the intimate and the social bond.
