Mareike Bode’s artistic approach centers around a yet to be discovered force of nature - the sense of smell. By using scent as a medium to create interdisciplinary and cross-functional spaces, Bode interferes in different smell perceptions and odor memories. With the volatility of an olfactory sensation she evokes an impulsive openness within a person herself and between people’s minds. Smelling something awarely or unconsciously triggers directly peoples’ curiosity and reactions which lead to unpredictable experiences.
