Organizing events at home and abroad, at times in partnership, showcasing curators as ambassadors of artists
29 November 2024 - 26 January 2025
EXHIBITION
Venue: in-tangible institute, Chiang Mai
In Buddhist cosmology, heaven is traditionally understood as a state of transcendence, where suffering ceases and ultimate peace is attained. Just like heaven (if it doesn’t feel like hell) questions where such ideals can exist, suggesting that while many may deceive themselves with the opportunities of the metropolis, the sacrifices of such longing wreaks of incomprehension, pain and suffering.
24 May 2024 - 3 June 2025
EXHIBITION
Venue: MAIIAM Contemporary Art Museum, Chiang Mai.
This exhibition explores how humans invest in particular narratives, in order to enable, sustain, or even control a desired future. The eight artists in this exhibition delve into histories of superstition, folklore, materialism, political doctrine, and colonial conceit that shapes the future today. Their works offer windows onto how such trusted guidance (or beliefs) are too often asserted at the expense of others, ultimately betraying land and people.
