Aura

Perfume Bottles  | 2015 |  Optical Crystal & Silver
The ‘Aura’ perfume bottles are inspired by the characteristics of Complex Partial Seizures, a form of Epilepsy. Aura describes the nostalgia-like sensation perceived by the individual prior to a seizure, each piece individually named after the three symptoms experienced interim and post seizure. ‘Aphasia’ describes language impairment, ‘Phantosmia’ an olfactory hallucination which is distinctive to the individual and ‘Amnesia’ the loss of memory post seizure.
