Love Spell

A Familiar Smell
Type: Sculpture




18”x24” relief with hex standoffs.
 


Love Spell’s slow-release, chemical limmerance represents the fragrance composition and color of mango.

The public restroom channels memories of our everyday lives, of familiar smells that are packaged, and shipped in bulk as industrial goods. When removed from it's context and framed, the urinal screen becomes strange and elegant.
