Vujicic is transforming the gallery space into a laboratory where, using the lab equipment, he produces perfumes from human excretions. Visitors can ‘leave’ any of their excretions and the perfume will be made from them. They receive one specimen, while the other is retained in my perfume repository.
The time it takes to produce a perfume is ± 60 minutes. The flask filling takes place in the gallery. The perfume is named after the donor and the type of excretion it was made from. The product can be used.<\/p>\n

artist’s notes:<\/p>\n
– gallery as laboratory – ‘art’ becomes functional, both approachable and inapproachable – because art might smell badly
– sweat, sperm, urine, feces, menstrual blood, milk – as basis for perfume derivation, a transformation of excretions into something else in an unnatural way
– perfume as social and cultural value
– invisibility and strange sensuality, a potent substance
– flux – importance of flow (› Deleuze)
– subjective impression of smell (we like our smell no matter how it smells)<\/p>\n
