In the present natural environment more have a tendency to be destroyed. As a result of the destruction of the natural environment, it affects humans and living things.

Causing the problem of climate variability disasters tend to be more severe air pollution extends more and more.

From changes in the environment as a result, the coral was left with a white limestone structure, becoming a source of “Coral bleaching” Corals are organisms that cannot grow alone corals obtain a portion of their nutrients from algae. It is an organism that is in a mutualism.

Like humans, humans are compared for existence. The good or bad quality of life for humans and living things depends on the health of the environment.

When the environment changes, humans are affected human beings are now being perceived by nature to take back the actions of humans that do not preserve nature.

It is like nature is bleaching human beings.

But if humans work together to preserve nature Nature will return fertility to mankind.
Therefore, the artist creates works of art.

To convey the worsening of natural changes that affect humans and living things. Reveals a loss of vitality and fertility.

Improvisation Transform 4

Assist.Prof Chuchai Assawaarekun

Introduction

By the influence of the autonomous and improvisation thinking methods of surrealism and postmodern concepts that gives artists freedom of thought and creativity to create a new world in Arts that is beyond the framework of a familiar image to create new imagery that never existed lead to the creation of new art styles that follow modern art.
I have experiment the methods mentioned to apply in creating works. Which is based on Thai traditional art brought through the creative process by free. In order to create a new image or new style as far as possible.

Conclusion

Improvisation by unpredictability. It may be a good or bad result, but a lot of freedom in the creative, freedom to trial and error in the creativity. This is an important feature that exists in the creation of art In all ages especially in contemporary art.

Objectives Aims or Purposes

Controlling people’s behavior through space design is a sub-element of the relationship with in the structural power. It has an ingenious design device that fits seamlessly into everyday life. The motion was controlled from the central hub of power pressed against the top plane from the bottom.

Besides, it also has characteristics that can be moved horizontally.

The executors can be both power users and those under control. The work of “Rhythmic activities” was the result of looking at the structure of power in a horizontal manner by exposing the structure of the spaces through a wide-angle rotation of the plane. From the point of view located in the center of the slaughterhouse area which consisted of many closed units, the complexity that had been allocated proportionally and assembled to become a large structure.

The usefulness arising from the design of the area, there will be activities that control the body movements to move on accordingly and the time will control the activities to proceed on continuously.

The process taking place in the abattoir area reflected “Structural Power” hidden in space design as it is a power that has a horizontal nature.

By the relationship of the elements under the slaughterhouse that consisted of spaces, activities, time, and bodies.

These elements control the organization of the bodies to keep moving repeatedly and regularly as if it were rhythmic activities and that the melodies harmonize the bodies to move effectively.

Process or Methods

1. Take pictures of traditional Arts.
2. Then try to change the format by using the program to decorate with computer. Photo
editing with a variety of techniques, free up familiarity (based on the concept of automatic Painting) to look for new, contemporary, yet still some old mystic feelings are hidden in the picture.
3. When taking some pictures from a live experiment, I can select some interesting
images to display.

Process or Methods

In the visual presentation, the image is moved from the center of the area.

It moves the image continuously with the rotation surrounding the area.

It defines the filming area from the center of the slaughterhouse area.

It has a wide viewing angle. To allow the viewer to explore the hidden elements of the image as a multi-channel image on one screen, it also uses a time delay in the area of the image to reveal the perceptual overlap in the original dimensions.

In the perceived time difference, the Metronome’s voice will be used as an integral part for opening the area of understanding of the audience. See the relationship of the slaughterhouse area with the sound of the Metronome.

Expose the coordination of activities that are like rhythmic activities.

The Floating Gardens of Inle Lake

Desirability

The Floating Gardens of Inle Lake

Mr. Sam Forkner

Introduction

Inle lake is home to the Intha people, who have been passing down traditional farming methods for generations. When visiting Inle lake, visitors can have a homestay with Uncle Umo who will happily show them the techniques he picked up from his grandfather.

Conclusion

Traditional lifestyles are disappearing quickly as modern supply chains move in to eliminate the need for subsistence farming. But it is more than just farming techniques that are being lost. The way of life which comes with getting up with the sun and spending time outdoors is what ultimately leads to cultural expression and by default happiness.

Objectives Aims or Purposes

With this piece, I hope to encourage the sharing of culture. This place and these techniques are unique, but upon seeing them we realize how much in common we all have. It’s a small world after all. The current unrest in Myanmar threatens to close the country to visitors for quite some time.

Process or Methods

This documentary was shot cinematically under very difficult circumstances. On the water, the boat was always moving making framing and focusing hard. Other people on the boat, or nearby, had other work going on which was not part of the filming process. It was noisy and chaotic. The producer and director were arguing constantly. The crew from Myanmar spoke no English and their footage was lost. Ultimately, when back in Thailand, I was able to piece this documentary together from what was left.

You and I, Traveling the Rain to the Stars

Assoc.Prof. Pakorn Prohmvitak

Introduction

Anytime I visit the temples in Myanmar, I see a lot of mosaics along with the murals on the walls. I was interested in the reflections of the people in these mirrors and also my own reflection. The mosaic walls makes the temple feel like heaven. I wanted to capture that feeling too. I felt like traveling to another world. Or like I traveled to another star or to heaven. That is what inspired me to make a work of art.

Conclusion

I did various tests by myself looking at the work. My current reflection travels with my former self (the me with a blue shirt in the original picture)

Objectives Aims or Purposes

To experiment how the mirror and the photo can come together. How the reflection of a mirror can create an image and how an image can be a reflection of the viewer. The viewer can see their reflection in the outcome of the piece.

Process or Methods

I went to the temple wearing a blue shirt and stood in front of the mosaic. Then I waited for some people with blue clothes to come by, and then I took the picture. Then I used the computer to make a design from this photo. And finally put actual mirrors on the printed work to make it look like falling rain. This is an interactive art piece. The viewer, when they see the art, they will see their own face and body reflected. It shows in the picture in the form of raindrops, and they merge with myself dressed in a blue shirt from when I took the original picture.

The King of Prosperity: The King of Desirability

Assist.Prof. Gomesh Karnchanapayap

Introduction

Dragons are mythical creatures appearing in many cultures. Chinese dragon is also a symbol of power, strength, good luck, and prosperity for people. All these are desirable qualities men have been seeking after. In modern China, the number ‘8’ is associated with wealth. ‘Eight’ (八) in Chinese is pronounced ‘ba’ and sounds similar to fa (发, i.e. facai 发财), meaning “well-off” or “getting rich in a short time”. Thus number ‘8’ is synonymous with the most desirable number.

Conclusion

The King of Prosperity : The King of Desirability is an amalgamation of Art and modern technology resulting a desirable art object through the concept, form, and material which are desirable.

Objectives Aims or Purposes

The artist would like to capture the concept of desirability through the use of the mythical creature-dragon with the form of the number “8”. The sculpture should emanate an aura of power, strength, good luck, and prosperity—all qualities to be desirable.

Process or Methods

The Artist began by researching about Chinese dragon and cooperate with an ink artist for the initial design of the dragon. The artist used figure “8” as the key form of how the dragon coil making the statue aesthetically pleasing from all angles. The form of the dragon was sculpted in Adobe Medium-a Virtual Reality sculpting application.

Intimate Objects Engender Meaningful Space

Intimate Objects Engender Meaningful Space

Associated Professor Pisprapai Sarasalin

Introduction

Interior design is the art of arrangement each element in space. Each element in a home has its own meaning and functional aspect. How we arrange them should reflect on personal taste and nourish spirit of a person resides in a place. This project aims to discuss about the arts of arrangement objects in interior space focusing on the aesthetic and emotional aspect. I used my sense in combining each material, such as texture, color, natural light and mood. I tried to achieve the composition that appears artful and not too overstated arrangement and try to keep them simple and natural as possible. I hope to inspire many viewers that designing interior of a home, small objects are relevant and can have relationship with life. I would like to say that interior design is not merely style or decoration. It is essential that good quality interior design should embrace qualities that can enter into a meaningful dialogue. Interior designer must use their senses and their delicate skills while designing as well as giving attention to the details that related to emotional aspect of human being.

By using my home which my daughter and her husband designed the architecture and I designed the interiors as a site to study, therefore, this project reflects my personal taste of colors, materials and textures. The objects I used in the study has its own story and some of them are very meaningful to me. Some objects passed by from parents and ancestor, some were given, some designed by my daughter, some designed by myself and some I have collected them over the times. My most meaningful pieces in this project are ceramics pieces that designed by my daughter, other objects such as her favorite scarf, my father’s trophies etc. I cherish its memory with them in my imagination through objects left behind. These objects made me understand that the small objects can be the most meaningful to human being. How I glorified these meaningful objects will be explained in this study. One of a book that inspired me the most was written by Gaston Bachelard… ‘The Poetics of Space.‘ The book enlarged my imagination. I would like to close with a sentence that Bachelard stated in this book and hope to inspire all viewers :

‘ The miniature deploys to the dimensions of a universe. once more, large is contained in a small’
( Gaston Bachelard )

Introduction

  Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly
discovered coronavirus. It is mainly transmitted among person through droplets when the infected person coughs, sneezes, or exhales. These droplets flow in the air for a certain distance, and quickly drop on the ground. Social distance or physical distance is an intervention during COVID-19. By increasing the physical space between people, it is likely to reduce spreading illness. It creates the new normal for a living since Covid-19 started.

This artwork interprets how social distancing impact to our society and raise awareness for the new normal living.

Due to unavailability of COVID-19 vaccine at the moment, one of non-
pharmaceutical measure to prevent the virus is social distancing. The facts below are considered.

– Facing different angle
– Keeping space among people
– Wearing face mask to protect from breathing in airborne virus

From above facts, the artwork was created by applying ovals and circles to simplify
people wearing a face mask, standing or walking on the top view. The artwork consists with 360 ovals, or 360 people, rotated in different 360 degrees. Each oval has its own angle which isn’t repeat any others and has their own safe spacing boundary as same as the way how to keep social distancing.

COVID-19 is a global issue in five continents. Therefore, this artwork was created
with five colors, blue yellow black green and red, to represent diversity for people from all five continents in this world. These five colors’ tone were inspired from the Olympic Ring’s color in 2020 in order to honor the Olympic Game which should held in this year. All in all, the elements were arranged to appear to be moving like the spreading virus.

In the current world without COVID-19 vaccine, people need to protect themselves from infecting the virus from others. Likewise, the infected patients need to avoid themselves for not to spreading the virus to the others. Living in distance with different normal will help the mankind keeping their journey. It can make a difference.

Introduction

Reading human thoughts is a complex matter when we look at someone that we
cannot use ourselves or my experience to make decisions because of the experiences are different. Because people come from many directions many of reasons in their own way it also enhancing the appearance, interior, concealment and distortion of the true self.

we meet a lot of people we do not know what the people has encountered until we get to see somebody’s true colors. Therefore we cannot judge people from the outside. Because of your real characters anyone don’t know what he be done that many times we judge others for their actions only once which we may look at only one side and then decide.

The reasons why people judge anyone from outside because most people use the unconscious mind and instincts to consider first to judge more than using consciousness judgment is the reasoning.
Therefore, the artist creates works of art to convey ideas through works of digital art by using 3D modeling techniques to reflect people’s views based on cause and effect.

Objectives Aims or Purposes

To reflect don’t just look at people from the outside because there are many things that
determine.
