hide//seek//difference//desire//northwest

i just poured decants of the perfumes from the cat call collection for an exhibition called hide//seek//difference//desire//northwest as part of the queering the museum exhibition

i'm showing the pieces as a loose-leaf book, with the perfumes in bottles, and numbered rather than labeled.  the viewer can sit at the table, read the book, and experience the ephemeral sculptures, matching the perfumes based upon their olfactory experience

the idea/aesthetic was partly inspired by ann hamilton's performance pieces incorporating tables, such as still life, 1988
