Gayil Nalls email: Nallsg@aol.com website: http://www.worldsensorium.com http://www.smartlab.uk.com/4people/assor/index.htm Gayil Nalls is an interdisciplinary artist, theorist, writer, curator, filmmaker, and academic who works between the arenas of professional art practice, science, and academia. Nalls has had five one-person exhibitions in New York and her artworks can be found in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Corcoran Gallery of Art, The National Museum of American Art and numerous other public and private collections. Nalls is widely known as a pioneer of olfactory art. She broadened the definitions of sculpture and public art when her world social olfactory sculpture World Sensorium, premiered at New York’s “Times Square 2000.” As the New Year arrived, paperworks — visual vehicles containing her olfactory sculpture based on culturally significant scents and mathematically constructed on the global population at the turn of the millennium — cascaded down with the confetti to the resonance of two million people, evolving a metabolic collective. World Sensorium was endorsed by UNESCO as a project of peace and goodwill, and was also featured in Washington, D.C.’s Millennium Around the World gala and the Vatican’s Millennium Jubilee in Rome, Italy. More can be read at the World Sensorium Web site (www.worldsensorium) In 2004, Hemispheres I, was shown at Siggraph Gallery in LA, on the OmniGlobe (a spherical projection system) where Nalls united her sculptural, film, painting, and olfactory talents in a multisensory, synaesthesic experience. “Hemispheres I and II” were screened at the Cannes Film Festival Short Film Corner 2005. Ms. Nalls is an Associate Research Fellow with The SMARTlab Digital Media Institute and an artist member of the Institute of Neuroesthetics in the UK. Her work is directed at morphological issues of form, not only as structures, but also as complex thought expressed in stylistic as well as ideological and conceptual processes. She has taught at Parsons School of Design and New York Institute of Technology and served as Visiting Artist Professor at many institutions including The Institut Superieur International Du Parfum at the University of Versailles in France. In 2005, Ms. Nalls completed the September 11th Memorial for The City of White Plains, New York and has two public commissions in process. http://www.worldsensorium.comhttp://www.smartlab.uk.com/4people/assor/index.htmhttp://www.worldsensoriumshapeimage_3_link_0shapeimage_3_link_1shapeimage_3_link_2
