YUQING LIU, SCENT ARTIST
Yuqing Liu, an olfactory interaction artist and immersive experience designer, explores the intersection of scent, memory, and narrative. Celebrated for her pioneering work, Liu's journey started with her acclaimed graduate project at UAL in 2021. She expanded her reach as a lecturer and collaborator with educational institutions in China. Liu's notable projects include the "Every Shade of You" campaign with Omega and EcoScent in 2023, and innovative exhibitions like "VI-SCENT.Lab_Memory Archiving System.”
Yuqing Liu's art is inspired by her grandfather's battle with Alzheimer's, influencing her to use scent to capture and evoke memories. Her work explores the potent link between scent, memory, and emotion in a visually dominated world. Integrating technology with olfactory interaction, Liu’s pieces resonate deeply, aiming to preserve and evoke the ephemeral threads of human experience, expanding sensory interaction in art.
