<i>Tangible Scents - Composition of Rose in the Air - </i>is an open-air installation which uses Maki Ueda's original method of “de-and re-construction in the air” to decode on the scent of rose. The five major components of the this scent are individually infused into vats of soap, which will each be poured into five different bubble machines. You can deconstruct rose into its component scents by poking the bubbles, or immerse yourself in the total scent. (curator: Aersen Lease, artistic director for the Reed Arts Week Festival 2018)</div>

Olfactory artist Maki Ueda (JP/NL) considers smell a ‘new media’. In her practice, she minimizes the influence of other senses in order to center the spectator’s attention on her fragrant gestures. In addition to her own creative work, she has also taught a course on olfactory art at the ArtScience Interfaculty of The Royal Academy of Art, The Hague (NL) since 2009. While Ueda is currently based in Okinawa, Japan, she works all over the world.</div>

This theme can be interpreted in a plethora of ways, including, but not limited to bodily, media-based, and religious sensations. We recognize that the art world often prioritizes our vision, and, through the theme of sensation, we are encouraging artists and patrons alike to challenge this axiomatic primacy of sight in exchange for an interest in collective, spiritual, and somatic resonance. </span><br />

Both student and professional artists will appropriate campus as stage and scenery for poetry readings, dance pieces, theatrical and other performance works, live music, and, of course, the display of visual art. Featured artists and performers include: international olfactory artist Maki Ueda; poet Marty McConnell; fashion designer Eda Yorulmazoglu; animator Eric Dyer; artist Stephanie Gervais; poet Esther Belin; photographer Parker Day; 11:Dance Co.; photographer DJ Meisner; and musical performers Marquii and DJ Manny Petty. </span><br />

While a group of Reed faculty initially introduced Reed Arts Week in 1990, the festival has come under the jurisdiction of students and this is the first year in which the annual event will be institutionally stewarded by the Douglas F. Cooley Memorial Art Gallery. All events are free and open to the public.</span><br />

<b>Olfactory Games </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Maki Ueda started her olfactory art course Smell and Art in 2009 at the ArtScience Interfaculty. In the course students learn a conceptual and abstract approach to the medium of smell. The use of smell goes beyond the representational use and focuses on its qualities and experience without a need for a narrative or context. The students are challenged to develop olfactory games using this approach. Furthermore, they learn chemical skills by extracting and composing smells to support their creations. The game format challenges our imagination: while we always have limited fragrance materials, we never stop thinking of new games. The Japanese traditional olfactory game Kodo is a good example of this.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
Maki Ueda is an olfactory artist who explores olfaction with an abstract and conceptual approach. She was the World Technology Awards finalist in 2009 (category: art), and the Art and Olfaction Awards finalist in 2016 (Sadakichi Award). She is a guest teacher at ArtScience Interfaculty of the Royal Academy of Art and Royal Conservatoire, The Hague, The Netherlands. Maki Ueda is currently based in Okinawa, Japan. <a href="http://www.ueda.nl/">www.ueda.nl</a><br />

<span style="font-weight: 700;">Smell courses in art academies: fresh perspectives </span></div>
<div style="color: #383838; font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.875em;">
More and more art students (the Royal College of Art, the Hague, the Royal College of Art, London and PXL Mad, Hasselt) are taught how to engage with new and demanding (museum) audiences through the sense of smell.</div>
<div style="color: #383838; font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.875em;">
The Dutch-Japanese artist Maki Ueda has been teaching the course ”Smell and Art” at the ArtSicence Interfaculty at the Royal Academy of Arts the Hague for almost 10 years now. Ueda choose the olfactory game as a starting point because it requires a creative approach, that is neutral in a sense that the quality and nature of the scents are less important than the sense of smell itself:</div>
<blockquote style="border-color: rgb(0, 135, 190); border-style: solid; border-width: 0px 0px 0px 3px; color: #383838; font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 19px; font-style: italic; margin: 1.75em 0.875em 1.75em -1.9em; padding: 0px 0px 0px 1.75em;">
“From the beginning I made a conceptual and abstract approach to medium of smell […] We always have limited fragrance materials but we never end up with thinking of new games”</blockquote>
<div style="color: #383838; font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.875em;">
Beside challenging her students to playfully explore the limits of our most neglected sense in order to get acquainted with its characteristics and peculiarities, there is also a practical dimension. Students actually learn the basic skills of perfume making:</div>
<blockquote style="border-color: rgb(0, 135, 190); border-style: solid; border-width: 0px 0px 0px 3px; color: #383838; font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 19px; font-style: italic; margin: 1.75em 0.875em 1.75em -1.9em; padding: 0px 0px 0px 1.75em;">
“There needs to be a poetic aesthetic dimension too. That is why I teach students a somewhat scientific approach to the medium of smell by extracting and composing, in order to entertain their audience in a creative way”<br />
<div>
<br /></div>

There was a time when textiles were precious goods. Actually, a time not so long ago. Yarns were spun and woven together by hand. And yet not everyone could get his hands on bigger pieces of fabric. So one had to make due with what one got and sew together fabric scraps to make clothes to wear or futons to sleep on. That's what you find in the BORO collection: textiles that were handed from one generation to the next, with seams having been mended here and holes having been patched with fabric scraps there. You will be surprised by how vibrant, how full of life these textiles are. As were designers at Louis Vuitton, COMME des GARÇONS and KAPTIAL, who all were inspired by BORO. </div>
<div style="border: none; color: #202020; font-family: Verdana, メイリオ, "MS Pゴシック", "MS ゴシック", "Hiragino Kaku Gothic Pro", "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3", Meiryo, Osaka, Osaka-等幅, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Not art works but not fashion either, these textiles, as they now exist in front of us, were born out of necessity. As was their design. That is what makes them so convincing, so real. They give us access to an idea of beauty and aesthetic pleasures different from textiles produced for the aristocracy or the wealthy. </div>
<div style="border: none; color: #202020; font-family: Verdana, メイリオ, "MS Pゴシック", "MS ゴシック", "Hiragino Kaku Gothic Pro", "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3", Meiryo, Osaka, Osaka-等幅, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
In times such as ours, were money is spent on the redevelopment of Tokyo before pompous Olympic Games instead of earthquake victims, where the country's leaders cheerfully buy weapons of mass destruction, we might take a look back at our roots. Wasn't it textiles like these, that our grandmothers and great-grandmothers, 50, 60 years ago, there in the dark, silently sewed, mended, patched after we went to bed? Where is Japan heading? Is our way of life right the way it is? That's what we should ask these textiles. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Coming from Japan and working a lot in the olfactory art scene in the West, I sometimes get a feeling being lost in the contexts. For example when people talk about perfume as a standard platform of scent culture, I feel different. I try to illustrate, with my words, the context where I live.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In the West, it is quite normal to wear perfume as social manner, but in Japan it's not. We have longer tradition in incense. We even have developed sophisticated games for olfaction and literature, Kodo, more than 1000 years ago. In the West you wear perfume for identity and for self expression. This creates a domain around you. We in Japan first respect others, and the space between us. We use incense to share time and space. It function almost as a medium for communication. So if one overpower the space by his/her overwhelming perfume or bodily scent, this creates a problem. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One might say it's one of the Japanese original concepts called "ma". Western people have much stronger body odor than us Japanese. So using perfumes to mask the body odour is accepted socially. We have little body odor, and on top of that, we have a habit to bathe daily to wash away the body odour. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Scents are used more for the others. For ancestors in buddhism ceremony (for purification of spirits, and respecting them), and for guests as hospitality. Incense is lit long before guests come, so that he/she can enjoy the trace of scent left in the space. Smoke disturbs the olfaction so burning it in presence of guests is to be avoided.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In the West, a scent is a material. It has the source, you can specify the source, you can name it, and you can even specify the chemical components. When you smell something you try to specify it: "what is this scent?". You might find a pot of hyacinth on the table: you can specify the scent source. And the chemical structure is pretty known: benzyl acetate, phenyl ethyl alc., etc. Scent is an object itself and at the same time material that you can control. It's something visible. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Scent created by incense is penetrated in the space, hanging in the air. You might notice it, but you might not. The scent exists only for one's mind who can detect it and appreciate it. Normally we don't specify what the smell is, because we know that what we are smelling is a mixture of the space odor and season's fragrance from plants in garden, etc. We smell it more like looking at a scenery. We simply appreciate being "inside" of the scents. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We also smell scents in mind. For example when you say a word like "osmanthus", it implies not only the season (often defined in protocols of classical poems) but also implies the scent too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In Kodo games in contrary, we have to specify and distinguish the scents. We use the verb "to listen to" for smelling with this critical attitude. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
These are questions, or just my interests raised from my observation. I would simply like to share with my fragrant friends. Comments are welcome.</div>

<div class="p2">
This study's purpose was to investigate principal challenges and exhibition strategies for scent art; surveying current approaches and solutions used and developed by today’s small, but growing number of scent artists. Since such previously non-existent practical information is essential for any artist seeking to successfully exhibit their scent-based work and institutions seeking maintain a high standard of exhibition quality, this study focused on developing an information framework for effective exhibition practices in scent art, whilst simultaneously fostering the building of awareness...</div>

contained a shelf of my mother’s books and one of these book was about
Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Inside I found photos of burned and rotten bodies. A field
full of bodies that no longer look like bodies. It was in the high summer
season so the bodies would quickly rot and flies laid eggs wherever they could.<br />
<br />
The photos were so shocking to me that for nights I was afraid to go to sleep.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But I did not dare ask my mother to
remove that book from my bedroom because it seemed rude to the victims. As I
grew up I peeked into the book again and again, out of curiosity for the atomic
bombings, and I realized that I was getting better in dealing with the fear. I
ended up sleeping with that book until I left home at the age of 17.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

about these pictures, but all of sudden, while I was thinking what to show here,
I realized that they were the reason why I could not think anything else beside
the smell of rotten flesh when I think of “the smell of war”.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

Just finished the opening of Olfactory Labyrinth ver. 2, at Museum Villa Rot in Germany.<br /><a href="http://www.villa-rot.de/" rel="nofollow" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://www.villa-rot.de</a></div>

"The walls are inpregnated with different woody smells: Cedarwood, Olibanum, Patchouli, and Labdanum. Find the exit by folling one scent that starts from the entrance."</div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
The audience looked enjoying being lost in the space where the scents of wood are filled.</div>

Being in Europe, especially in this context, I cannot ignore my Japanese cultural background. If I compare my work to the other artists's, mine is very minimalistic. I'm not expressing my statement nor fascination, emotion nor manifest with my work it almost seems like.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 6px;">
What I am trying here is perhaps rather to make myself transparent, by giving audience freedom for experiencing and understanding. Smelling is an active and subjective action. So I provide an occasion where the audience enjoy being immersed in trance, like meditation.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 6px;">
In that sense my attitude (and my work) is very exotic I could say... I got even more ideas to make different labyrinth, the next step.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 6px;">
I was a bit bored with eating bread and ham but it made me emotional when I was leaving there. Such a wonderful and peaceful environment, staff, and the team of artists!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 6px;">
Thank you Stefanie and Marcel from the museum, and Caro Verbeek, the curator, and all the artists that have been giving me a lot of inspirations with the fragrant conversations <i class="_4-k1 img sp_4m121pBIgs2 sx_4c99e4" style="background-image: url(https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/v2/yj/r/3GLukfPA3Ry.png); background-position: 0px -8160px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; background-size: auto; display: inline-block; height: 16px; vertical-align: -3px; width: 16px;"><u style="left: -999999px; position: absolute;"><br /></u><u style="left: -999999px; position: absolute;"><br /></u><u style="left: -999999px; position: absolute;">wink絵文字</u></i></div>

Title: Olfactory Memory Game<br />
Year: 2010<br />
Memory, also known as Concentration is a card game in which all of the cards are laid face down on a surface and two cards are flipped face up over each turn. The object of the game is to turn over pairs of matching cards. These cards have no images but scents.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">- move, smell, and sense -<br /><br />It's a small, yet life-size maze designed for playful olfactory exploration that challenges your sense of smell. If you follow the right scent, you will manage to get out of the space. Otherwise you will be stuck in the maze.<br />In recent years my key words have been "movement" and "olfactory experience". I've been researching omni-directional olfactory experiences within a certain space. The sensations created by actively walking around and finding smells are very different from just passively receiving smells.<br /><br />I’ve wanted to make such life-size "olfactory labyrinth" for years. But I first experimented at low cost, resulting in this first prototype in 2013: an installation with bottles hanging from the ceiling in a grid. Each bottle contains fragrant oil. The candle rope by which it hangs from the ceiling gradually absorbs the oil and spreads the scent around the space.<br /><br /><br />The main focus is the olfactory experience rather than the scent itself. I think that smell is, in itself, neutral. It's the audience who attribute meanings such as "I dislike this smell" or "This is the smell I knew from my grandma's house" after processing olfactory information in their brains. Such meanings to smells are given from personal experiences and histories. This is why I chose not to give meanings to smells in this project.<br /><br />I rather want to be open to surprising olfactory experiences that we normally wouldn’t encounter in daily life. Omni-directional olfactory experience has been forgotten in our modern life, so reviving it is especially interesting. You can become convinced that human beings, much like dogs, have the ability to sniff around and navigate themselves using their sense of smell.<br /><br />I try to exclude visual and audible aspects in my works as much as possible. I let the work explain itself rather than doing so in words. Instead smells and space communicate with your physical sensations, allowing you to project images and play sounds in the mind. I believe that smell possesses such power.</span></div>

An exhibition to remember 100 years first gas attacks World War 1 </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
The Smell of War will shed light on the first gas attacks in World War 1 and deals with the fascinating phenomenon of odour and thereby goes beyond the usual museum based form of experiencing art.
International artists from the present day demonstrate that scent can really be context and /or concept of the work. Scents evoke memories and so also emotions and associations, but let the beholder also re-think and reflect about the context of the work.
The exhibition begins with a historical representation of the first gas attacks.
The main focus of the exhibition however lies on the olfactory artworks about gas attacks and chemical wars, as well as on the not-smelling aspect by protection of gas masks. So we also show works that smell of nothing at all and in which the odour is only conjured up by the visitor’s imagination, or translated as an odour through the image.
The exhibition will be supplemented by a publication as well as a varied supporting program, consisting of guided tours, talks and workshops.
