<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong><span style="font-family:
arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Saskia Wilson-Brown<br>
</span></strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span
style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">French and
American by upbringing, Cuban and English by blood, Saskia
received her BA (fine art) from UC Berkeley and her MA (fine
art) from Central Saint Martins.</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-family: arial,
helvetica, sans-serif;"> A producer and curator for visual art
and film, Saskia co-directed the seminal Silver Lake Film
Festival, ran international outreach and development for Al
Gore’s Current TV, and has consulted on a number of arts, film
and transmedia projects, including the P2P distribution
platform VODO, DIY Days, TEDActive and Slamdance Film
Festival. In 2012, her interest in unorthodox practices led
her to create The Institute for Art and Olfaction (IAO), a
non-profit arts organization devoted to experimentation,
access, and education in perfumery. Through the IAO, she has
launched partnerships with institutions such as Goethe
Institut, Hammer Museum, Getty Institute, Danish Film
Institute and National Media Museum UK (with Tammy Burnstock),
Standard Hotel, Atlas Obscura, Huntington Library, Wallace
Collection, Silent Green Kulturquartier, Watts Gallery, LACMA,
and many more. In 2013, she launched the Art and Olfaction
Awards, an awards mechanism for independent, artisan and
experimental perfumers, which she has produced in Los Angeles,
Berlin, London and Amsterdam. In addition to countless art
installations and events, she has also produced large
public-facing experimental programs relating to olfaction
including the Biennial Scent Fair LA (with Darin Klein) and
the annual Experimental Scent Summit (with Klara Ravat).
Recent projects include a multi-year exploration of open
source strategies in scent-making called Open Sourcing Smell
Culture, building and maintaining a perfume garden servicing
the Bell Homeless Shelter in Los Angeles in partnership with
GrowGood.</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-family: arial,
helvetica, sans-serif;"> In 2019 and 2020, Saskia was a
visiting lecturer at the Royal College of Art in London,
teaching about scent-making as a creative practice in the MA
Fashion program. In March of 2020, when Covid-19 made travel
and in-person events impossible, she spearheaded a quick
launch of an online division of the Institute for Art and
Olfaction. Through artandolfaction.online, the Institute for
Art and Olfaction (IAO) team and collaborating teachers served
just over 600 people from diverse locations around the world,
within the first 30 days. This allowed the IAO to continue its
mission to facilitate access to the tools and information of
perfumery, while reaching an even wider audience through
increasingly affordable, well-researched and authentic online
education.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span
style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Current
projects include producing a semi-monthly radio show called
Perfume on the Radio and finishing a documentary about
ownership and historic reconstruction in the field of
perfumery while pursuing a PhD about the relationship between
perfume, access and power.</span></span></p>
