Sniffing out the Differences is an award-winning series of interactive installations which explores narratives from South Asian cultures from the past, present and future using olfactory interactions and associations.
It is a dialog between our identities in today’s globalized world in which we hold more than one, articulated through smell and pattern visualization. It also questions Xenophobia and other biases, through olfaction. It further lets the audience experience a culture with its distinct smells and interact with it, thereby making sense of that culture.
