scent piece, as part of we are longing for a future that will never come (collective)

​​scent piece is a collection of natural and synthetic scents acquired through various extraction methods. The scents assemble a complex story for the future through small vignettes of memory. Viewers are invited to sample each scent on blotter strips, although some may be out of reach or potentially toxic. Churro wool connects each mixture to its component parts as participants get lost in a web of dreams, fears, joy, and dread.

we are longing for a future that will never come is a project featuring a group of artists who collaboratively address the problematic and eroding narrative of a linear “future” of “progress” fueled by consumption, displacement of peoples and species and the commodification of the Earth. This type of future has been misleading, misrepresentative and inherently violent, especially for traditionally marginalized people, land-based peoples, and the Earth. It has received funding from a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Emergency Grant and the Fulcrum Fund.
