Life, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 02/11/2016
» How do we picture the world and ourselves? That is one of the key questions asked in "An Atlas Of Mirrors", the fifth edition of Singapore Biennale, which opened last week at various venues with the Singapore Art Museum (SAM) and SAM at 8Q as the main spaces. As many as 63 artists and collectives joined and the result is a gushing forth of narratives -- collective and personal, historical and contemporary, factual and imaginary.

Life, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 06/07/2016
» In the not-so-distant future people may no longer be working in offices but instead will turn to alternative venues such as co-working spaces. This speculation is not hasty, considering it is the current vision of Charle Charoenphan, co-founder of one of Thailand's first co-working companies HUBBA. Since its launch in 2012, the business has thrived and Charle said in the past few years roughly 500 such spaces have sprung up across Thailand.

The future, in reverse
Life, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 08/06/2016
» On the surface, artist Apichatpong Weerasethakul's video of a night journey through a temple doesn't seem to be in dialogue with photographs of Sakhalin island by Japanese Tomoko Yoneda.

Life, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 16/03/2016
» The notion that an artist can exist alone and thrive independently, according to artist and curator Henry Tan of the Tentacles contemporary art space, is long over.

The food stylist
Muse, Kaona Pongpipat, Published on 12/09/2015
» Paweethida Tanjasiri's som tum doesn’t look like any we’ve ever seen before. Her chops of string beans are of a purplish hue and the sliced tomatoes vary in colour.
