Summary:
"Artist Anicka Yi's work involves scent, tactility and perishability as a means to reconfigure the epistemological and sensorial terms of a predominantly visual art world. At MIT, Yi has explored MIT's cutting-edge research in designing materials with unique biological properties. Yi is not only interested in materials research, but also in what collaboration between individuals and disciplines might mean in relation to friendship. Drawing upon philosopical and critical writings, Yi explores the political and ethical ramifications of these interactions."--Arts at MIT webpage.
