His body of work merges fiction with poetry and offers synesthetic experiences engaged in a multitude of subjects primarily based on lives of family, friends, and colleagues as much as local myths.

b. 1985, Bangkok, Thailand

Lives and works in Bangkok and Berlin, Germany

Orawan Arunrak’s work is largely inspired by her everyday life. Using tools like pencils, pens, paper, but also photography and the internet, she creates works that take the forms of drawing, painting and installation. Her practice is aimed at engaging in dialogue with local inhabitants in an attempt to merge the space of art and non-art. Repeatedly crossing national, cultural and spiritual borders, Arunrak’s work has examined likeness and difference within and between varied locations in both Asia and Europe where she has lived in recent years, and based on relationships she has with these places.

DUSADEE HUNTRAKUL

b. 1978, Bangkok, Thailand
Lives and works in Bangkok

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, economics, and socio-cultural issues. Ever since seeing his late brother bring home funky fired ceramic pots that he made at a community college’s pottery class in the USA 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.

TAE PARVIT

b. 1993, Bangkok, Thailand
Lives and works in Bangkok

He expresses abstractions of reality through a myriad of means. Though practicing predominantly as a painter, his creative output has spanned the genres of animation, digital drawings, screen-printing, publication, music, performance, and to a lesser extent, mural painting as well. It is therefore unsurprising to find his paintings inflected with the characteristics of these varied genres, bearing nuanced traits of movement, textures, and narratives. Even though taking inspiration from personal experiences and the world around him, his works transcend merely being auto-biographical chronicles. Rather, he draws viewers into realms of colors that meld images, times, and stories in melodious harmony and counterpoint.

MITI RUANGKRITYA

b. 1981, Bangkok, Thailand
Lives and works in Bangkok

He is a visual artist whose photography practice expands into the realms of video, text, and publishing to express his ruminations centered on the notion of the City. His prolific body of work, catalyzed by his return to Thailand in 2010 following over a decade of education in England, chronicles personal responses to his everyday observations while articulating with sensitivity the urban urgencies of contemporary living. Spanning political upheaval, ecological change, dislocation, and economic inequalities, the range of topics explored across his oeuvre is further characterized by his extended and in-depth engagement with them, as evidenced by his varied and longstanding series of works such as Thai Politics (2006 – ongoing), Dream Property (2014 – ongoing), and Sunset (2018 – ongoing).

DHANUT TUNGSUWAN

b. 1994, Bangkok, Thailand
Lives and works in Bangkok and London, UK

Dhanut has an incessant love for science-fiction films with a distinctive atmosphere and escapade engrossing him while watching such a form of art. The experience manifests in his anecdotal paintings which may recall sunken memories. Dhanut’s subject matter is also drawn from his life in the era of over-saturated information which he acquired sources in making his paintings. The outcome is a juxtaposition of familiar and outlandish images traversing times and spaces.
