Sandra Schouten

Sandra Schouten is the artist behind Het Huis van Proeven, an initiative that tells stories with food and smell. Her work moves between Social Design, Community Art and Food Art. The food and smell is no end in itself, but a means of interaction. The theatrical setting leads towards an intense experience, new conversations and discoveries. She talked about how it is possible to use smell to make contact with people with dementia, connect with them in a playful living environment and use it as part of a multisensory way to share meaningful experiences together with food.
