Sawasdee2519 – MOCA BANGKOK https://www.mocabangkok.com Fri, 31 Oct 2025 10:10:49 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 Sawasdee 2519 https://www.mocabangkok.com/sawasdee-2519/ Tue, 01 Aug 2023 11:45:33 +0000 https://www.mocabangkok.com/?p=2043 […]]]> This is an exhibition by Jitsing Somboon, curated by Nim Niyomsin. Sawasdee 2519, a solo exhibition by Jitsing Somboon, is not a retrospective. It does not follow the artist’s career or timeline but an interpretation and a reinvention of Somboon’s creativities. It refers to his works from various periods. Expanding on Somboon’s artistic sense, notion, and spirit, these works were recreated and reconstructed using contemporary media and techniques. This exhibition is a reflection of the past, to represent the present, the now, and future prospects.

Exploring his creativities since a young age, through fine art and the fashion industry, one has seen the recurrence of simple straight lines, a fragmentation to create an illusion of the whole form, a play on human vision and spatial perception, intentionally or not. This repetition and continuity seem to destroy the linearity of time, where each period in his career can act as an initial point.

Sawasdee 2519 does not mean to lead you back to celebrate his many decades in the art and design industry. Its focus is not on the past but on the present and the future that could have been foreseen and a reciprocal of the past.
