Presented by Thai artist Supachai Areerungruang in Singapore, over 120 pieces of ink on paper drawings, paintings and video work were shown including a towering installation that occupied the central section of the gallery. Supachai's art practice embodies creative expressions in diverse ways, especially of feelings that cannot be voiced. At stake is the ongoing migration and miscibility within Southeast Asian communities across geographical boundaries for economic and other reasons. The exhibition demonstrated the contemporary context of the artist’s life, his thoughts and interpretations, and their vital role in presenting ideas and messages to society at large.
