    Life, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 04/05/2016

    » The massive space on the seventh floor of Bangkok Art and Culture Centre is now filled with a series of grainy and greyish photographs. Viewers should be warned that the experience there can be rather disorientating; not only are the photos random, they seem to have been arranged almost impulsively. Entitled "Omnivoyeur And Electrical Walks Bangkok", these photographs by Miti Ruangkritya only make up one part of the show, which is only complete when sounds by German sound artist Christina Kubisch are added.

    Many hats, much passion

    Muse, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 21/02/2014
