Amorn Pinpimai :"I have never heard any sound except those from my heart and my breath. I believe all sound is silence."
Anan Pratchayanan :"In my work, I attempt to reveal the power of cultural trespass by powerful nations, especially Western countries. Such trespass comes by various means among the current of the modern world, influencing people to change their lives in some manner.""Western culture is trespassing and occupying Thai culture. It began with the age of colonialism, but it is presently a function more of the prosperity and development of the modern world.""So, although my works are titled in English but I express the words as they are spoken by Thai people."
Praphan Rakarin :"Creating artwork for me is a self-expression of my uniqueness. Year after year I have stared at the sky and its rain falling with solitude through my bedroom's view of London. In every single minute that the rain captures my eyes, I am no different from a prisoner trapped inside the word of sadness.."
Tanin Ko-Arnantaukl :"I have spent much of my life working in the music business but art was always my passion. At university I was told to focus on the works of Picasso and van Gogh but I never truly understood what made them so great.Years later I visited Europe and was able to see some of their work up close. Immediately I understood and was inspired by their genius, along with other artists such as Matisse and Klimt.Like Klimt and Picasso my work is mostly symbolic, with a strong emphasis on vivid, flowing color"
Vichian Boonmeemak :The literal meaning of Vichian's family name, Boonmeemak, is "having much goodness". His search for the perfection of soul is a search for perfect goodness."My work is, henceforth, the reflection of the search and the journey from the experience of my soul. I utilize the path that I have taken as a mirror for the soul of mankind through the use of natural shape and the flow of freedom."
