Art Exhibition “Reverie”
By Wutigorn Kongka
4 August – 7 September, 2008 at Galerie N Wireless Rd.
(Opening party on Monday 4 August, 2008 7.00 pm.)
| Wutigorn Kongka has his name in the Thai art scene’s spotlight as always. And here comes the solo exhibition of Wutigorn - "Reverie", where he tells all his "Daydreams" through the stories of people’s relationships.
The artist brings us into his dream-like fantasy world, where he conveys his thoughts, feelings and dreams. It's all about "us" ... of what inside a man and a woman ... of love and relationship ... it's all about human.
The viewers will be taken into his imaginative land, a land of timeless myths and ancient tales of his own. And his works will provoke us to think about our own dream-like world... and a real world.
"Naturally, I’m a daydreamer. And pouring all those strange imaginations into my paintings is such a pleasure. Even though painting one’s dreams has been repeated over and over again since the dawn of time, still, I’m mesmerized by the magic power of the two dimensions of the canvas. It feels almost like a long time couples’ intimate relationship, me and canvas. And that, somehow, appears in my works. A relationship in a strange dream, repeated like the ancient tales we all know."

Since several things have come into his path of life, the variety of the impacts occurred, therefore, have turned out to be the art elements, combined and formed Chalit Nakpawan’s life the same way he creates his art works. Here comes the latest exhibition “PARTY ’LIT”, which the artist himself has conveyed all of those stories and moments.
“As life goes on, my life’s story have filled with incidents, components, timings, colors and dimensions. Seeing life as “a big theatre”, I consider all of those lines, colors, forms, intensities, textures, symbols, compositions, combinations and points of view as the settings, light & sound and the characters, which, on my way of working, has created the story of the play in my arts. I, thus, have gradually improved and learned the lessons. Today, all the stories, lessons and points of view in my life still play their parts in a colorful way. They are bright and strong. Dazzling. Lively. Sometimes they’re subtle and mild. Sometimes wise and still. And give the softly taste of sweetness always. Combining and mixing like the never ending party of mine.”

Clothing does more than just protect the body from the elements. It tells the world about the identity, status and social position of the wearer.
In today’s hectic, complex and materialistic society, we require and demand ever more individuality of expression to set us apart, at least in our own minds. In response, ready-made identities, beautiful and perfect, have been manufactured to perform the function. When I contemplate this self which has been so created, I find sometimes conflict, sometimes hollowness and emptiness.
Narissara Pianwimungsa, an up-and-coming artist, questions today’s society about ‘self’, in terms of individuality and identity presentation through clothes and accessories. Do these covered skins express their owner’s identity? If not, who is underneath them?
