Two upcoming Thai artists present their ideas of preservation through different artistic approaches during Healing , which will take place at La Lanta Fine Art from Saturday to Aug 31.
Presenting objects of a fragile nature, Thanistha Nunthapojn and Praween Piangchoompu work in two completely different media needlework and printmaking to extend the lives of these objects.
To Thanistha, preservation means upholding the existence of objects. With an interest in mending and preserving intrinsic beauty, she deliberately works with broken ceramic objects such as ornate sculptures, vases, and plates. She delicately puts the broken pieces back together by sewing them up with a thread.
