Transcendental Yellow Rose

A color-field painting is completely drenched in rose oil, so the scent engulfs the gallery. What seems quiet and innocuous is actually the most assertive work of art in the show. The audience takes home a scented flyer with a written text that described the mystical meaning of the scent.
