No education.
Mountains of costly mistakes.
Allergic to artist statements at this time.
Production obsessed.
In the atelier:
Band of Bullies: raising a middle finger to various groups.
Savage Roads: a different way to talk about the deadly roads of Thailand (year-on-year highest death rate per capita in the world). Traditional awareness clearly doesn’t work.
Yant: expressing how we’re all lost in our own way.
Huskism: material exploration of the coconut husk / tree.
Most of the ideas that come out of the studio are from unique images, materials, traditions that I’ve come across in Asia. I’m fascinated by grimy working class and industrial visuals, materials and craftsmanship. Bringing those elements to life in a contemporary art setting is what excites me.
