The Institut du monde arabe invites you to a fabulous voyage, discovering the scents of the East and their history. Through a journey spanning over 1000 square meters, blending ancient and contemporary works, marked by surprising olfactory installations and scents specially crafted by perfumer Christopher Sheldrake, it's an invitation to see - and to smell - how fragrances have always been an essential dimension of Arab culture, from the High Atlas to the shores of the Indian Ocean.
I am presenting an immersive recreation of the perfume souks in Oman, featuring seven exclusive large portraits from my series "The Guardians." These portraits were captured in the Sultanate of Oman in May 2023, with three of them providing sound content to offer deeper insights into this fascinating craftsmanship.
