The scientific artist
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 27/01/2012
» WHY ARE YOU INTERESTED IN GENETIC ENGINEERING? I personally like the subject matter and wanted to question it through my artwork. Unlike artists in the past that worked under common genres such as portraiture, animals or landscape, art has becomes more personal with artists incorporating their own interests in their work. Genetically engineered animals and plants are now a reality and I think we still don't fully know the effect they can have on human beings.
The rice bran man
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 16/03/2012
» My dad was determined to build a plant that added value to Thailand's agricultural commodities, especially rice bran. However he unexpectedly died two months after starting it and, at that time, he had borrowed a large sum of money. His death brought us not only grief but also set off a crisis of confidence among the company's stakeholders.

Veggie prince
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 21/10/2016
» Nakorn "Prince" Limpacuptathavon, 33, is the poster boy for sustainable farming in the city. He started growing chemical-free vegetables on a piece of land next to his own house eight years ago. As his enthusiasm for all things green grew, he began hosting activities at his learning centre, Ban Jaochai Phak, or Veggie Prince's House, in Lat Prao Soi 71 and now talks at various events to spread his organic farming know-how. Guru chatted with Prince about how urban farming can benefit city life, in case you may want to get out your shovels and garden forks.
