Don’t expect a natural strawberry in Age of Innocence, but a summation of memories and impressions - pink and red lip-gloss, strawberry yogurt, sweet jams, freshly opened bags of chewy candies, burnt sugar - our recollections are always olfactory at first, before we even find the image that matches. Strong smells saturate our memories: this realer-than-real strawberry clashes and melds with the strange and dark elegance of industrial sensations. Like smelling hot rubber, gasoline, or smoke for the first time - we recall its intensity, its unnerving unnaturalness, but also its strange appeal. I am reminded of chalk dust, rose petals, unleaded 95, damp mornings in nature, latex gloves, a doctor’s office, wood fire (cade), and whiteboard markers. A mechanic blowing pink bubblegum, a red lollypop in an oil spill, the lingering presence of smoke. The great pleasure of Age of Innocence is its combination of textures - both sticky and slick - two concepts coexist, one no more privileged than the other, flushed in smoke.
