Folie À Plusieurs — A Marvellous Entanglement
Eau de Parfum
Moving sensuously over the warm concrete in an industrial building in São Paulo.
“For A Marvellous Entanglement, filmmaker and installation artist, Isaac Julien worked with Folie and perfumer Yann Vasnier to create a scent inspired by Julien’s 2019 work by the same name. Consisting of performance, film, and photography, the piece is an expansive meditation on the work of the Italian-born, Brazilian-based multidisciplinary architect Lina Bo Bardi. Bo Bardi sought to create a uniquely Brazilian design vernacular that expressed modernist forms through local materials. [She was one of the] most prolific female architects of her time and yet, as with so many female artists, she has largely been overlooked by history. [...] As Vasnier said, ‘I tried to articulate the sensuous movements of the dance sequences on the concrete floor with spicy, musky petals seducing the waxy, musky cement.’” — Mary Cleary, Wallpaper Magazine
Feeling: clear, enlivened, entranced, open, optimistic, nostalgic, playful, radiant, stimulated, tender, vibrant.
Hand-painted bottle with unique coloration and markings.
