About the Artist

The work of Korakrit Arunanondchai (b. Thailand, 1986) focuses on the transformative potential of storytelling. With each project, he expands his cosmos of interconnected stories told through expansive video installations, paintings, objects, and performative works. In his videos, he processes experiences in his personal environment just as he does political events, history and questions to our crisis-ridden present. 

Born in Bangkok and working primarily in Bangkok and New York, Arunanondchai often draws upon the cultural contexts in his own biography as well as spaces with postcolonial trauma. Using essayistic and experimental approaches, the artist works with multiple collaborators to assemble audio and visual materials from various sources. With references to philosophy and myth, his narratives weave together questions about consciousness, empathy, and community. 

Arunanondchai has exhibited widely across the globe. Arunanondchai is also a co-founder and organizer of Ghost, an ongoing series of art and performance festivals in Bangkok.
