‘In With The New’ is a series of 20 acrylic on canvas paintings by Thai artist Tanupon En-on. The series is his interpretation of modern society where news and information is highly accessible and people are able to interact and travel freely. Everything is interconnected; all cultural aspects influence each other and have become intertwined.
Local characteristics and identity are now harder to define with the influx of external influence. Traditional art and culture are constantly being transformed and re-interpreted resulting in new visual language.
In this series, the artist explores this issue by looking through the E-sarn artistic past of Hoop Tam, a unique traditional mural painting that uses vivid colors. En-on experiments with the symbolic combination of old and new characters, to reflect on the current changes in Thai society.
