Scent Ballad - No.01: Harmony - Geranium + Frankincense (2012)

Fragrance: Geranium + Frankincense
Element: Water
Material: Felt, Mountboard, Printed Acetate, Essential Oil

Harmony attempts to capture the sense of smell as a series of visualisations. The core concepts of these pieces are a combination of the Chinese Five Elements and Gabriel Mojay’s ideas on aromatherapy and psychology. Essential oils were the foundation of these pieces, upon which a framework was constructed of signs, symbolism and colour psychology to explore images of harmony within Eastern traditions. Stained glass has also influenced the project, especially the way in which Church windows fill the space with their symbols and a range of colours.
