DUSADEE HUNTRAKUL
The Commoner’s House
6 August–25 September 2022
BANGKOK CITYCITY GALLERY is proud to present THE COMMONER’S HOUSE, the second solo exhibition by Thai artist Dusadee Huntrakul at the gallery. The exhibition is curated by Singaporean curator John Z.W. Tung, who has followed Huntrakul’s practice closely for the past eight years.
Expounding on existing themes that have characterised Huntrakul’s practice, the exhibition of new artworks that comprise cast brass pieces, photographs, and ceramic sculptures reveals an expanded array of materials that the artist has employed in his artmaking practice since THEY TALK in 2019. Consolidating these varied artistic endeavours and interests in a singular exhibition makes apparent their intertwining relationships, reiterating the artist’s committed focus towards offering new ways of seeing, perceiving, and evaluating the connections between all living beings.

ARTIST
DUSADEE HUNTRAKUL
b.1978. Lives in Bangkok, Thailand
Dusadee Huntrakul is a multi-disciplinary artist working across mediums of sculpture, ceramic, drawing, painting, and text. Seeking human connections that extend across time, his works span the topics of mortality, archaeology, anthropology, and urban ecological observation. Ever since seeing his late brother bring home funky fired ceramic pots that he made at a community college’s pottery class in the US in 1998, something profound moved within him. He started working with clay almost twenty years ago at his uncle’s ceramic studio in Bangkok, and remains to this day, committed to using fired clay, language, and other materials to compose spaces that are familiar yet unknown.
