About Same But Different Fonksyon Prensipal: Enstalasyon Atistik

Tèks Liv: Same But Different se yon enstalasyon atistik ki transfòme sant an yon fòm fizik. Travay sa a baze sou izomè yo, ki se konpoze ki gen menm fòmil chimik men yon aranjman diferan nan atòm yo, e ki kapab pote de sant diferan poutèt sa. Chak eskilti gen de sant ki gen rapò youn ak lòt, e li konbine fòm molekilè yo an yon sèl fòm. Fòm yo fèt ak enprimant 3D, epi yo kouvri ak plizyè kouch penti olografik ki aplike ak yon aerograf endistriyèl. Chanm entèn ki gen materyo absòban prezève sant yo, ki gaye deyò atravè ti kondwi fen. Vizitè yo ka kenbe ak pran sant chak pyès.

Unique Properties: The project is about converting smell into a physical form and constructing visual interpretation in two different approaches. For the first approach, to provide a tangible experience of the smell, forms were created. Each shape contains two relevant smells. Molecular representation of the smells has to be placed together to create a form. Smells were contrasted in their juxtaposition to each other using still-life layouts based on these smells' chemical arrangements for the second approach.
Dimensions & Packaging: The 3D forms around 12-15cm and printed with the maximum resolution of the printer. The inside of the forms has internal chambers (2cm) with absorbent materials, which allow preserving the smell. The chambers are connected to the exterior through thin conduits (2mm), which allow the smell to diffuse out.
Tags: smell, chemistry, 3dprint, sculpture, art, tangible, juxtaposition, 3d, holographic
Production Technology: The forms were 3D printed and coated with several holographic paint layers applied by an industrial airbrush. Shape and a colour give a hint about the duality of the smell preserved in one form.
Design Challenge: The project's greatest challenge was to stay on the scientific side and translate real phenomena into the experience for the ordinary person.
Research: There are thousands of chemical substances. The exploration is about unique pairs which have the same formula but have two different smells. Only a small variation in the arrangement of their atoms makes them different. This rare and unique phenomenon was found and confirmed with experts (perfumers and chemists) through the research.
Inspiration: The complexity of the human senses is impressive. If you are interested in the topic, it will bring you to the research in the chemistry behind them, in this project specifically to smells.
Project Duration: The project started in January 2017 in Moscow and finished after five months. It was exhibited in the "Reveal" show in June 2017.
Operation Flow: People can smell and grab the sculptures to experience them from different angles.
