EAST HAMPTON, NY—OLFACTIVE ATTRACTIONS: THREE PARTS WATER is a collaborative work by Julia Davis and John Zinonos about submersion. Inspired by the lack or presence of water in three global terrains, the artists created an exploration into the deep. The voyage begins with the Desert, a stark landscape devoid of moisture and represented in an odor of warm spices and dry woods. After traversing through this arid environment, the traveler is met with the wetness of condensation - dew drops collecting on plant leaves, humid air, and damp earth of the Jungle. Finally, the Ocean embodies complete saturation; a tingling sensation in the nose twirls sparkling coolness with sea salt, triggering the refreshing feeling of freedom that comes from diving into water on a hot summer day. Custom fragrances created by Julia Davis, KNAUER NEVER.

For Olfactive Attractions, Julia and John have selected the following 3 iconic terrains:

Desert // dry, warm, woody, spicy, ambery. // light blue, pale,silvery, warmth, arid, mirage
Jungle // tropical, damp, green, aquatic, earthy  // vibrant, saturated, rich, wet
Ocean // marine, salt, aquatic,aldehydic  //deep, cold, endless,mysterious, vast
