After making waves in the city with the launch of its Art Rotation Series last year, luxury boutique hotel 137 Pillars Suites & Residences Bangkok will host multi-award-winning artist Therdkiat Wangwatcharakul in the second edition of the art showcase that celebrates top Thai talent.
In ‘Volume 2’ of the series, Therdkiat, who has a Masters in Painting from the Silpakorn University, the Kingdom’s foremost school for fine arts, showcases two new collections. The first titled ‘Home Boats’, revolves around the vessels that ply the Chao Phraya River, and uses aluminum as a medium to tell the story of the journey the boats endure. The second set uses the subtle interplay between light and shadow on old architecture to remind us of the poetic beauty we are surrounded by.
No stranger to the global art circuit, Therdkiat has showcased his unique brand of work all over the world, including solo exhibitions in the Netherlands, South Korea, Singapore, and Japan. Along the way, he picked numerous prestigious awards including the prestigious ASEAN Art Awards Juror’s Choice, the first prize from the Office of Contemporary Art and Culture, and the top honour in the SAMART Contemporary painting exhibition, among others.
