The etymology of energy is equal to the “power to express.” Within us humans, there is a current of about 200 µA. All life forms a vast network of interconnections through the exchange of activity (energy). When waves of different values, or expressions, collide, a large vibration occurs. Although invisible to the naked eye, this phenomenon resonates with the electric current flowing through our bodies.

“Ahare Space Project”
In addition to the overall design of the space using scent, we at ASP have transformed it into a symbolic object called “First Respiration”.
In one aspect, we understand the existence of scent as an invisible “nothing”. In other words, if we try to deepen our understanding with our identity, “nothing” “exists”. The concept of beginning and end disappears, and everything is in a cycle. They are sometimes expressed in a circular shape that harbors thoughts and dreams, and have been considered the original and essential form of all existence.
The “Waves” emanating from the works of 11 artists collide and resonate. What if the first drop of the ripples was a scent? What if it was a single, extremely minimized drop of water?
The inspiration accessed from that drop of scent becomes a ripple, which links with and resonates with your functions that are being performed at this moment, and meets your breath in the silence of the distance.
