About the Artist
Wasinburee Supanichvoraparch
b. 1971, lives and works in Ratchaburi, Thailand
The attribution of uncontrollable aspects has always been at the core of Wasinburee Supanichvoraparch’s art practice and philosophy. His works, through a wide range of media, act as a reflection of the transience and uncertainty of life. This is not surprising, given that ceramics are his prime medium, a medium where every slight variable can affect the outcome. Sometimes, Supanichvoraparch’s works even try to challenge our perception. The periphery between reality and the surreal is presented through a subtle sense of humor and irony. This results in a fascinating beauty created from layers of reality, with all factors, controllable and uncontrollable, combined.
Supanichvoraparch is a leading Thai artist and the owner of Tao Hong Tai Ceramic Factory. He has made his name through ceramic art but is also known for his photography, sculpture, installations and public art.
