SWEET YELLOW

by Studio Ariane Shirvani

Flowers use a variety of signals to advertise rewards to their pollinators. Sweet yellow is a hypothetical flower field. a room where the floral signal transformed into olfactory constitutes and is defined by a cer-tain wavelength. The exhibition aims to evoke human sense and reconfigure our relationship with nature.
The works include a series of vases carrying the chemical compound developed from a yellow floral signal. The distinct opening at the top of the vase flows into a narrow form. It sends the smell wafting up the bottle, releasing it into the air. The second part of the installation includes UVL yellow lights suspended from the ceiling. The light spectrum is limited to light above 500 lm to simulate the floral color.
This exhibition emphasizes human interaction with the environmental surrounding through our senses.
