Olfactory Art

I have posted a link to an article that I read on scent as art work.  What I want to know, is how can one possibly curate such an exhibit?  I find it interesting and a completely redreshing concept in contemporary art.  Any thoughts?

     At first glance this image seems very closely related to some of my recent work about my personal struggle with infertility.  As I was unable to open an artists statement, I do not know if that is even remotely similar to her intended meaning but it struck me as extremely similar in appearance, and so caught my attention.  In this image the fruit may be a reflection of the impermanent nature of the human body.  Here the fruit appears to be molding, with large dark spots on what should be very appetizing. This questions the permanency of the human body.
     Another possible read of this image shows that the image draws from 18th century still-life painting.  The limited background information and the lighting is indicative of this style.  This reference draws a parallel between master paintings and modern day commodity culture with mass marketing and advertising images. Idealized, or imitative images may "legitimize" a product in order to sell more.
     Finally, this image may also be viewed as a commentary on photographs that are snapshots of predetermined subjects, such as some of the the early Kodak images.  Still-lifes were common subject matter for early photographers who struggled with long exposure times and the camera's inability to capture moving subjects.


Three of my recent photos:

"Oranges", 2010.  This image is part of a series of work which I am working on currently that relates moldy, or altered fruit to my own ppersonal struggle with infertility.

"Boxes", 2010.  This image is a document of one area of concern in my life.  My home life is in a constant state of turmoil and stress presently and this image underlines this feeling of chaos.

"Lights", 2010.  Here blurred christmas lights are representative of my childhood memories of driving around our neighborhhod at night during the winter to look at festive houses, done up in Christmas lights.
