In this performance Afek addresses the audience’s olfactory sense. In a temporary laboratory he produces different scents referring to biography, local products, places and memories. These smells are kept in transparent plastic bags and served to the audience. When the performance is not taking place, the olfactory laboratory functions as an accessible sculpture, inviting visitors to interact.
