task one: shape of a scent




Brief : We were given an unmarked scent and asked to create a mind map (in groups of five) based on our descpriptions of the scent. Some questions that we in groups responded to included:
What attributes or impressions can you get from the smell?
What feelings aspirations, mystery and personality can you reflect from it?
It was noted that we shouldnt conform to our groups mind map, that we were free to disagree with all our groups mindmap.
The second part of the brief was to “let our sense of smell co-trigger [my] emotions and create imagination”. We were asked to individually sculpt a vessel that visually captured the essence of the scent.
As a group we came to a conclusion that our scent had a very strong initial scent with tones of cinnamon, cardamom a very rich earthy/spicy undertone, it then finished with a more refined and delicate accent.
After sketching various concepts i came to the conclusion that my model should track the journey of this particular scent… [will finish this post later]
