A Solo Exhibition By Michael Shaowanasai
Group Curator
26 July - 21 September 2025
This collection of works is served as the result of 10 years of studied and observation of “things and other interesting stuffs” by the artist, Michael Shaowanasai.
“I spent my days looking at things, react to it and questioned them. I took in the information those circling around me, react to it, digesting it and release it in the forms of Art works.”
10 years is a perfect block of time for us to see the changes and where things will go. Things change as time moves forward and effects of the past starting to show. As some grows up and some grows old, it is so true that Time can bring and also he will take.”
“Couple of things those you are ought to have in minds when you confront my works: I’d suggest you to “look” at the work in front of you, don’t just “see” it, be serious but not too serious and have senses of Humor.
When you find the balances among those three, trust me, your life in general will be way much easier to navigate.”
