PHOTO ESSAY : BANGKOK DEEMED
TEXT & PHOTO: CHATCHAVAN SUWANSAWAT
(For Thai, press here)
Ever since I was a child, I’ve always lived in Bangkok, and never moved anywhere. My parents were quite protective of me and didn’t let me go out that much. When I grew up, it turned out that the restraint from childhood has become some sort of a complex that urges me to walk around Bangkok as much as I can now that I’m an adult. I always find weekend city walks to be exciting and addictive. I like to keep on walking, sometimes with a destination in mind. At times, I would just wander aimlessly. The walk always leads me to unusual places and things, born out of unintentional clashes between humans and nature, all struggling to survive in the city that many both love and hate.
