THIS IS MY VOICE ONE DAY IN THAILAND

This series of works arose from an idea and curiosity about the excitement one feels while traveling to a different country, a province, or even a new location. It tends to be difficult to pinpoint the precise reason for the pleasure or exhilarating feeling that people have when they visit different places. It’s presumably how all these new experiences we have all at once combine into a certain “mood” or “vibe.” There are times when one doesn’t even question whether such excitement stems from experiencing something truly new or whether it’s their own perception that makes something feel new despite the fact that it may not be. 

If we are able to observe things from such a mentality or perspective, perhaps the things or locations that impress us do not have to be iconic or anything suggested or validated by others. It could be anyplace. It might be a location we walk past every morning or a building we see on the side of the road while stuck in traffic. 

This work is an imagination of a person’s first impressions of Thailand. If we can see these sites from this point of view, then the question is, what is it that actually excites us?

My interest and passion for the beauty of built structures since an early age have motivated me to travel to different cities and discover their unique charms. Memories have been transformed into architectural/map drawings interlaced with elements of painting. Unusual perspectives capture different urban landscapes in broader and more detailed views.

The work’s concept stems from a desire to explore into the astonishing births of cities, their history profoundly anchored and evolving over time, shaping every aspect of their existence. Particular focus is placed on architecture, which serves as an archive of a place’s past, present, and future.

Much like humans, cities develop their own distinct identity, characterized by unique features and beauty. The essence of this creative process lies in the endeavor to construct perspectives that enable the depiction of a place with great thoroughness and detail.  Using a pen, each line is drawn, one by one. The recreation of a city through each stroke of a pen feels like revisiting the city’s birth and growth through the passing course of time.
