About Same But Different Installazione artistica

Same But Different è un'installazione artistica che trasforma l'odore in una forma fisica. L'opera si basa sugli isomeri, ovvero composti che condividono la stessa formula chimica ma presentano una diversa disposizione degli atomi e possono quindi veicolare due odori differenti. Ogni scultura racchiude due odori correlati e unisce le loro forme molecolari in un unico volume. Le forme sono stampate in 3D e rivestite con diversi strati di vernice olografica applicata mediante aerografo industriale. Camere interne con materiali assorbenti conservano gli odori, che si diffondono verso l'esterno attraverso sottili condotti. I visitatori possono tenere in mano e annusare ciascun pezzo.

Press Kit

Unique Properties
The project is about converting smell into a physical form and constructing visual interpretation in two different approaches. For the first approach, to provide a tangible experience of the smell, forms were created. Each shape contains two relevant smells. Molecular representation of the smells has to be placed together to create a form. Smells were contrasted in their juxtaposition to each other using still-life layouts based on these smells' chemical arrangements for the second approach.
Dimensions & Packaging
The 3D forms around 12-15cm and printed with the maximum resolution of the printer. The inside of the forms has internal chambers (2cm) with absorbent materials, which allow preserving the smell. The chambers are connected to the exterior through thin conduits (2mm), which allow the smell to diffuse out.

Production Technology
The forms were 3D printed and coated with several holographic paint layers applied by an industrial airbrush. Shape and a colour give a hint about the duality of the smell preserved in one form.
Design Challenge
The project's greatest challenge was to stay on the scientific side and translate real phenomena into the experience for the ordinary person.
Research
There are thousands of chemical substances. The exploration is about unique pairs which have the same formula but have two different smells. Only a small variation in the arrangement of their atoms makes them different. This rare and unique phenomenon was found and confirmed with experts (perfumers and chemists) through the research.
Inspiration
The complexity of the human senses is impressive. If you are interested in the topic, it will bring you to the research in the chemistry behind them, in this project specifically to smells.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2017 in Moscow and finished after five months. It was exhibited in the "Reveal" show in June 2017.
Operation Flow
People can smell and grab the sculptures to experience them from different angles.
