Anjali Vandemark
Anjali Vandemark is a perfumer and olfactory artist based on Bainbridge Island, WA.
She was born in India, where surrounded by a family of exceptional cooks, poets, singers, writers, and engineers, she spent many evenings listening to ghazals, while savoring the nuances of spices in her grandmother’s cooking.
"Who commands the glittering night, leaving me in wondrous defeat?” her father wrote. His love for flowers led Anjali into artisan perfumery.
Through scent, Anjali explores emotion and presents an abstraction of our collective, ephemeral experience.
Her art is not just about narratives; she questions the dark in which we spin and traces the shape of what remains unseen.
