Mirage

Introducing Mirage Vanguard, a multidisciplinary artist based in Atlanta and one of the collaborators in our upcoming ComfiScent campaign for Mother's Day. Mirage is best known for her colorful pop art and contemporary work with nods to pop and black culture, and her artwork centers around finding beauty in our differences and finding a common thread as humans.

For our collaboration, Mirage has created a candle fragrance called "We're In This Together," featuring a blend of Sweet Hemp, Patchouli, Lavender, and Green Leaves. The story behind her design is about the relationship between mothers and their children, learning how to accept each other's differences and seeing the beauty in them, and knowing that despite our differences, we're in this together.

Mirage's creative vision aligns perfectly with the theme of our candle collaboration, as she believes in finding a common thread as humans, and this project is an excellent opportunity for her to bring her authentic self to the table. The sensory experience of fragrance and ambiance also relates to her existing artistic practice, as all her senses are engaged and intensified when creating, and she prefers fresh and clean or woodsy scents. She is excited to try some different techniques with multimedia for the candle vessel and to engage more than one sense with a piece through this unique collaboration.
