Still Alive

The artist drew inspiration from the extinct “Pla Wee Ket,” scientifically known as Platytropius Siamensis. This freshwater fish was once commonly found in the Chao Phraya River basin in central Thailand. Research into the story of this extinction and collaboration with diverse local communities resulted in an art installation consisting of ceramic fish hung upside down on a thread. They form a cylindrical space with an entrance that invites the audience to enter. The numerous ceramic parts resound as they move and touch each other. They play a melody.
