The curtain appears

Using the term ‘curtain’ as a thinking tool, the project delves into the emergence of the boundary between the collective and the individual. Here, the curtain is not merely a physical object dividing space, but an imaginary boundary operating as a conceptual separation. This inquiry led to a body of work including: cyanotype prints of a calendar marked with political incidents in Thailand in 2020, a gum bichromate print of a curtain, and a site-specific video installation projecting the obscure gallery windows behind a white wall, rendering the view outside at dawn.
