Bangkok Snow Globe (2023)
Technique /Materials : Crystal Ball, Wood, Video one channel

The creation conveys the creator's perspective on the happiness of the people of Bangkok. This perspective is communicated through a snow globe that conceals a video recording of the happy atmosphere of people in a Bangkok park. The orb in this creation serves as a link between the context of the orb that is used to store memories, such as keeping important places or things that have sentimental value, and the story of the happiness of people in Bangkok, which is presented to the audience.

The creation is designed as wall art, resembling a decorative shelf with a snow globe displayed on it, like a souvenir that was brought to keep and admire with visitors on a future occasion.
