The city unfolds itself to us through our senses. We may explore our environment, its rhythm, atmosphere, texture, as well as its current condition through sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. In recent times however, sight has become the predominant means for discovery, overruling other modes of sensory exploration and bonding. What if we closed our eyes and returned to those senses?

What types of scents shape Pristina? What kind of human and non-human agents, environmental or social factors, activities determine it? What stories can scents unfold?

During the workshop we explore the surrounding area by using our body and olfactory senses, looking for the unique scent profile and fable of the city.
