What Do Stones Smell Like in the Forest? An Object Glossary : Chloë Lum and Yannick Desranleau is conversation with Daniella Sanader. Toronto, Ont.: Gallery TPW, 2019.
Abstract (English)"Chloë Lum and Yannick Desranleau's What Do Stones Smell Like in the Forest? creates a universe of things both mythic and ordinary, sensorial and abstract. From golems, perfume bottles, Ibuprofen tablets, sculptural props for moving bodies, French horns, and copies of Clarice Lispector texts, these objects simmer throughout Lum and Desranleau's two-channel video installation, prompting questions about their agency and liveliness. What Do Stones Smell Like in the Forest? is the second chapter in a series about the relationships between bodies and objects, and it also charts a narrative of chronic illness as informed by Lum's experience. What follows is an objects glossary-turned-conversation for their work, following the threads of inquiry laid out by the in/animate collaborations of What Do Stones Smell Like in the Forest?" -- p. 1.
