Portrait: Boris Raux -

From his scientific background the artist Boris Raux kept an intense drive for research. During the past fifteen year, he produces what he calls, The Olfactory Chronicles.

He tries endlessly to grasp a better understanding of our world and of our society. This task is obviously impossible so he faces the situation with humour and accepts to lost everything into volatile scents.

His practice evolves from four areas of investigation, the common goods, the common places, the uncommon bodies and the common myths to create, nowadays, performative sculptures that might be describe as factories of common olfactory experiences.
