I create images by deconstructing and recombining ideas drawn from my memories captured on film, as well as from childhood experiences, everyday life, and imagination. For example, I transform the shapes of the sea, waves, and shoreline into fish swimming across the page, or I reimagine the colors of a sunset sky as a salmon swimming through the current. 

As adults, we often forget to take the time to look up at the sky, and it is not always easy to find a moment to gaze at the ocean. Through my work, I try to evoke these shared experiences and moments of innocence, while also reflecting on the importance of nature that we must continue to cherish and protect. 

Moving forward, I hope to keep creating memories through nature, using it as both my inspiration and material.

PHOTO ESSAY : LOST IN THE MOON


TEXT & PHOTO: CHATURON YADAM

(For Thai, press here) 

To the moon.
You whom I can only gaze upon from here.
Up there, with only stars and sky for company, it must be terribly lonely. 

Have you ever found yourself in love with the moon?
I am one of those who have fallen for it completely.
Perhaps I could even be called a rabbit hopelessly enamored with the moon. 

Many say the moon is a symbol of the unattainable, something we are destined only to admire from afar, never to possess. 

She is like the distant glow of the moon itself, surrounded by countless rabbits, longing and reaching, and by a hundred thousand stars. Yet she remains softer, more luminous than any light among them. 

Even when one longs to ascend, rabbits are timid creatures.
And still, deep down, I wish to hold her. If only in the form of an image, that would be enough. 

I am the one who pairs the moon with its companions. As much as I wish to stand beside her myself, it is simply not possible, because there is no one to take the photograph, hahaha. Even so, if I cannot claim her, there is still joy in simply looking up from here. 

In the end, my moon may not be as grand as others.
But I can photograph her in my own way, even so.
