To honour International Women's Day, SAC Gallery have introduced four female emerging artists in "Herspective". The exhibition, on display at the Rosewood Bangkok reflects the converse side of womanhood through the artworks of Thidarat Chantachua, Praiya Ketkool, Thanathorn Suppakijjumnong and Aor Suthiprapha. If "perspective" means "perceptions" to other things in a natural understanding, "Herspective" tells a different "spective" through the talent and uniqueness of four "hers".
Aor Suthiprapha
"Origins"
Aor is a ceramic artist and designer, whose journey inward as a person to better herself is depicted in her artwork, which debuted in 2019. "This was the beginning of a new series and is mostly about the development of my inner self. The pieces show that, when faced with difficult situations, your true behaviour emerges. In this series, I want to go back to the origins of myself. I've used local clay because I am from Thailand and the form becomes the cylinder, which is a symbol. The process of learning about myself is like peeling an onion. The first layers come off and you keep going on and on till you reach the germ. But none of these layers come off without a few tears. That's how you learn about yourself.
