Ph. D. candidate / Event Co-ordinator

I am researching on Asian culture and urbanism. Urbanism and diverse cultures in South East Asia with main keywords, including “open space”, “community” and “communication” which currently focus on art scene in Thailand have been exploring.

In accordance with aforementioned keywords, I previously run art-based project in Phuket, conforming to 120th Anniversary of Japan-Thailand Diplomatic Relation 2007, authorized and supported by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan and the Royal Thai Consulate-General Osaka, Japan. Furthermore renewal of the project has been operated since September 2008 by doing artistic edutainment workshops in educational places in Phuket and purpose of project’s future plan will emphasize Phuket community improvement. I recently start curation and event coordinate work with complicated thought on Cultural Creativity and Social Inclusion.

Recently, I try to
 put
 art
 into
 Phuket
 society
 after
 Tsunami
 devastation
 and misleading
 tourism
 business
 has
 been
 spreading
 out.
 For
 the research,
 “Community 
Art” which
 generally 
plays
 significant
 role one 
thought
 of 
people
 all
 over
 the
 world
 is 
much 
deeper 
than
 the definition
 of
 community
 art
 because
 “Social
 Inclusion”
 is interlarded
 as
 the
 component
 of
 social
 recovery
 strategy
 for Asian
 people,
 so 
it 
will 
represent 
“what 
we 
can
 do”
 in 
improving society.
