Ampannee Satoh (B.1983 in Patani, Thailand)

​

A photographic artist who, through years of accumulated experience, discovered that photography offers far more than the act of documentation alone. She graduated from the Department of Photographic Arts, Faculty of Fine Arts (now the College of Design) at Rangsit University, before continuing her studies in photography at the École Nationale Supérieure de la Photographie in France. After completing her studies, she immediately began her career as an educator.

​

Ampannee artistic practice reflects a wide range of ideas and concerns, including cultural diversity, cultural and religious identity, territory, migration, and displacement. This can be seen in works such as Burqa 01, created during a significant transitional period while she was studying photography in France, as well as Lost Motherland, which depicts figures dressed in pure white burqas within unfamiliar environments to reflect the refugee crisis and the experiences of displaced people. Her practice incorporates multiple media, including photography and video.
