About Same But Different アートインスタレーション
「Same But Different」は、香りを物理的な形へと変換するアートインスタレーションである。本作は、同じ化学式を持ちながら原子の配列が異なるために二つの異なる香りを持ちうる化合物「異性体」に着想を得ている。それぞれの彫刻は関連し合う二つの香りを内包し、その分子構造を一つのフォルムへと融合させている。フォルムは3Dプリントで造形され、工業用エアブラシによってホログラフィック塗料が幾層にも重ねて塗装されている。内部の空洞に収められた吸収素材が香りを保持し、細い導管を通じて外部へと拡散させる。鑑賞者は一つひとつの作品を手に取り、その香りを体験することができる。

Behind the Design
Press Kit

- 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.

- 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.
