Event Nurturing Is Necessary

Nurturing Is Necessary

Scent-Making Workshop

28 May 2022
11am–12pm

Join Brisbane artist and naturopath Dhana Merritt for a scent-making workshop. Make your own personalised scented body cream using essential oils. Determine which fragrances nourish you, before crafting your own bespoke salve. The workshop fee includes all materials and you will take home a nourishing body cream.

Merritt created the scent in Rebirth Is Necessary, Jenn Nkiru’s first solo exhibition in Australia. It explores the magic and dynamism of Blackness in a realm where time and space are altered. The now, the past, and the future are rethought and reordered to create something soulful and mind-bendingly visceral.

The Institute of Modern Art acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land upon which the IMA now stands, the Jagera, Yuggera, Yugarapul, and Turrbal people. We offer our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first artists of this country. In the spirit of allyship, the IMA will continue to work with First Nations people to celebrate, support, and present their immense past, present, and future contribution to artistic practice and cultural expression.
