»Coupling is civilized. Solitude is primitive. Both have rules. The forest smells of damp earth, wild flowers, and the animals we might become.«

Series Statement
Minutes become moments. Frames become fragrance.
Le Cinéma Olfactif is not smell-o-vision. It is attention made aromatic. The scent tells you what to feel, what you might have missed.
Evocative, not illustrative. Fear rather than smoke. Absence rather than presence.
Not the explosion. Not the kiss.
Something quieter. Something true.
Launched in Berlin, 2014. Still going.
