News! Smell the Artist

Peter De Cupere is creating his smell. Not just a smell, but a composition of the smells of his body, skin of different parts, breath, sweat, sperm, spittel, nose drops, blood and many more smells you can imagine with a person. The smells are and will be substracted on different times, after different moments, after special diners made for him self by him self. A research that will go on his whole life. His first edition of his perfume will be soon available ...

The perfume is called 'Peter'

 For several years, researchers and industrialists were interested in sensorial effects of their breakthroughs and products on the human-being. New markets were created, in the field of touch, hearing, taste and vision, with more innovative products. But how about the sense of smell and its digitization?  Digital Olfaction Society World Congress 2013 will be held in Berlin in April 11-12, 2013 and will aim to open up toward a subject with large scientific and industrial potential, called the olfaction digital science.

lecture-cwf-peterdecupere11In his lecture "Olfactology Lab" Peter De Cupere talked about the possibilities how he as an artist interacts between nature and society.
The relationship between the use of scent as a creative aspect of his work and the references to scientific backgrounds and mental responses (based on the memory of the viewer's mind). As examples of his olfactory artworks he explains his tree - and flower works. He ended his lecture with his "Flower Fragum Cardamomi" which was exhibited during the whole Creativity World Forum 2011 event. November 16th 2011

In an attempt to bring together compelling examples of this trend, D. Dominick Lombardi asked a number of artists from various parts of the world to answer four questions with the hopes of clarifying this ever-increasing phenomenon of repurposing with a purpose.

Praten over geurkunst
