Barnabé Fillion, founder of ARPA STUDIOS, is an incredible artist who collaborates with talented creatives. I discovered him through his scent creations for AESOP. His fragrances can be found in exhibitions all around the world. His scents are unique, but he also invests deeply in the overall concept, including the bottle design, music, landscapes and art, creating a truly immersive experience.
Arpa Studios
ARPA STUDIOS, The Institute of Synesthesia, is a research project exploring the sensory basis of consciousness and sense-blending potential, offering wider perceptual awareness through scents. ARPA uses pure macerations to ignite and provoke all five senses. With a growing community of artists, researchers and synesthetes, ARPA associates every fragrance across a synesthetic landscape with translucent color, geographic memory, sonic experimentation, concrete poetry, architecture and tactile material.
