Olfactory Imprints: Scent for Self-Reflection with Dana El Masri Cost: For both workshops: $20; Per workshop: $15 Scent as a medium is a powerful tool for self-reflection and self-expression. It transcends traditional semiotics and goes straight to memory and emotion. In this immersive conversational workshop, Dana shares six essential oils from several parts of the world, covering some of their history and cultural significance in hopes of eliciting personal scent memories from the participating artists. Dana also has a theory she has put into practice in other workshops; Olfactory Imprints, where she believes that using our scent memories can help us re-identify ourselves through a new lens, bringing us closer to ourselves. This would also be a chance to showcase the possibility of using scent/olfaction in their own art mediums.
