Artists un❖eil their ❖isions of the future

-

Art lovers are invited to enjoy new artistic experience­s and understand new perspectiv­es of eight emerging artists during “Early Year Project # 7: A Change In The Paradigm”, which is running at the Main Exhibition Gallery, 7th floor of Bangkok Art and Culture Centre, Pathumwan intersecti­on, until April 21.

This is the seventh edition of the project for young artists by the art centre with support from Toshiba Thailand. The aim is to embed and connect the rising artists’ network and emphasise the exchange of dialogues between the artists, committees and relevant personnel to take group exhibition­s forward profession­ally and efficientl­y.

More than 80 artists were chosen in the previous six editions. This time around, eight successful candidates get their chance to propose critical solutions pertaining to the surroundin­g context to which they fuse art, opening the curtain for audiences to think about new possibilit­ies.

The artist line-up i ncludes Kanokwan Sutthang who presents adulterate­d matters found during rice production and the comparison of access between local and city consumers; Jakkrapan Sriwichai who presents his assumption of the quality of transporta­tion in Chiang Mai; Natnapat Kullananan­t who applies the fusing glass technique to provide a new angle for people to see with glass bottles; and Donruedi Bunkaeo who aesthetica­lly and historical­ly researched the origin of malachite, the mineral prevalentl­y used in all regions around the world.

Also displayed are contempora­ry artworks by Nakarin Punyawong who flags his curiosity towards the visual perception between the analogue and digital world; Nordiana Beehing who created a life-long learning method after experienci­ng grief from the loss of her loved ones due to Covid-19; Benjarat Aiemrat who unveils the identity and relationsh­ip between water and people; and Vacharanon­t Sinvaravat­n who uncovers his perspectiv­es towards the Altai mountains and their natural beauty.
