Unhiddenness 19th May - 6th June 10

This exhibition showcases the most memorable works by Surat Osathanugrah, which focus on scene and people of Thailand. Beside being a historical record of old Bangkok, it is also a piece of art which Surat has beautifully framed each scene to capture these moments in the daily lives of people.

(Con)Front 12th Jun 2010 - 03th July 2010
Like glimpses into a visual diary, (Con)Front is an attempt to tackle both the conscious and the unconscious. These visual dialogues pin down the artist response to his environment and his relentless search for a sense of place and identity. Provocative and disquieting, minimal yet profound, the exhibition examines the deconstruction of memory and time, the human desire to project towards the future, but what comes out of the future is the past.

SIPF Open Call is extended
till 11 April 2010. For more information, please visit SIPF 2010 website
