Therdkiat Wangwatcharakul

Therdkiat Wangwarcharakul was born in 1971 and graduated with a Master Degree in painting from Silapakorn University in 2003. He paints with oil on aluminum sheets, and the unusual use of this material contributes to creating a somewhat rustic or deprived atmosphere to his works. His paintings often focus on life as a constant struggle for poor people in the city.

No objects are in the settings - leftovers from the middle class are being recycled and the stray dogs become devoted companions. The use of aluminum sheets as a medium, which is a material that is recycled by garbage collectors in the city, contributes to a kind of real-life experience to his paintings.

A selection of Therdkiat’s works are exhibited at La Luna Gallery.

トゥーキアット・ワンワットチャラクンは1971年に生まれ、2003年シラパコーン大学の美術学部修士課程を卒業しました。彼はアルミニウムシートの上に油で絵を描きますが、この一風変わった材料の使い方は彼の作品に幾分か素朴で、また貧困な雰囲気をつくっています。彼の作品は都市の貧しい人々の絶え間なく続く葛藤に焦点をあてています。
物がないという設定－中流階級の残り物はリサイクルされ、野良犬が忠実な仲間となります。媒体としてアルミニウムシートを使用していますが、それは都市のごみ収集人によってリサイクルされた材料であり、彼の絵画において一種の現実体験が影響しています。
ラ・ルナ・ギャラリーにおいてトゥーキアット氏の厳選された作品が展示されています。
