[2025 Bangkok ] Travel Guide for ATTA Gallery (Updated Apr)

When we arrived, there were hardly any Thai visitors; most of the attendees were foreigners who stopped by to view the exhibition. On the day we visited, it was a Japanese paper exhibition, showcasing various types of paper. My favorite part was the raw materials for making paper, which were neatly arranged on a table. Visitors could touch and feel the materials directly, allowing for a hands-on experience. Additionally, the interior design was stunning. Each piece was thoughtfully placed in the most fitting spots, with clever use of light and shadow, making every photo taken there look amazing. It's a great place to visit with friends or for a romantic date. If you're in the Charoen Krung area, I highly recommend stopping by. The exhibitions rotate monthly, so there's always something new to see. ATT19 19 Charoen Krung 30, Bang Rak Subdistrict, Bang Rak District, Bangkok 10500

#InsomniaInExhibition Explore the world through the eyes of a mantis shrimp at the exhibition "Mantis Shrimp Matrix" by artist Lip Talk (Sarah K. Pedinotti) “What does it mean to truly see?” and “How can we expand our perceptions biologically, creatively, and spiritually?” These questions are at the heart of the Mantis Shrimp Matrix, which will take us into a world of perception that is beyond the limits of human perception. The exhibition is inspired by the mantis shrimp, the most complex marine animal with a visual system in the world. With the ability to detect ultraviolet, infrared, and polarized light, the mantis shrimp perceives the world in dimensions beyond human comprehension. Its perception questions the Umwelt (the idea that all living things experience the world through a perceptual framework determined by biology, instinct, and environment) and connects it to our ancestral heritage, survival, and the meaning of existence. The exhibition presents an interactive installation that combines light, sound, and sculpture to simulate the mantis shrimp’s vision. And challenge the audience to experience things beyond our normal perception, such as a simulated vision device that we can interact with specially designed devices to simulate the vision of a mantis shrimp, a coral reef sculpture made from plastic waste that reflects the impact of humans on the ocean and acts as a archive that records the history of the waste we leave behind, and the giant eyes of the mantis shrimp, glowing in various colors and acting as a window to different perceptions, telling stories from the depths of the ocean that are both strange and mysterious. This exhibition encourages us to consider that learning and opening up to new perspectives is not just a thought process, but a practice of empathy. Trying to understand the experiences of other creatures is a practice of the discipline of living together in a world full of things we don't understand. --------- 📍 Location: ATTA Gallery (Warehouse 30, Bangkok) 🗓 The exhibition will be on display until March 16, 2025 ⏰️ Open every Wednesday - Sunday from 1:00 PM - 6:30 PM 💵 Free admission --------- #AttaGallery #MantisShrimpMatrix #GrasshopperMatrix #LipTalk #InsomniaScene #ExhibitionReview #trip #NewYearNewTrip

#InsomniaInExhibition “Lost in Translation” explores the connections between art and craft in contemporary art . Today, the understanding of craft and contemporary art is no longer clearly divided. The exhibition Lost in Translation invites us to question the classification of art and craft works. Is such a classification really necessary? Through works that emphasize the importance of interpretation based on the viewer's perspective and personal experience. . "Lost in Translation" presents an interpretation between the blurred lines between contemporary art and craft by connecting two things that are often seen as different. In this exhibition, we will experience artistic communication through a variety of materials and techniques, which reflect the complexity and diversity of cultures. Featuring works by 18 artists from Thailand and the Indian Ocean region. The artists include Sharareh Aghaei (IR), Genevieve Ang (SG), Vesal Bahmani (IR), Melissa Cameron (AU), Faelerie (ID), Jumaadi (ID), Jason Lim (SG), Soe Yu Nwe (MM), Holly O’Meehan (AU), Widi Pangestu (ID), Deena Pindoria (IN), Pinaree Sanpitak (TH), Santi Seedarach (TH), Fa Wuthigrai Siriphon (TH), Rudee Tancharoen (TH), Minh-Nhật Tôn-Thất (VN), Samantha Vincent (ZA), Inson Wongsam (TH). The works on display in this exhibition cover a wide range of techniques and materials, including ceramics, lacquerwork, and weaving. Each piece is linked to the exhibition’s theme in several ways, such as: 👩🎨Holly O'Meehan's ceramic artwork invites us to explore a hypothetical future of indigenous flora in the south-west of Western Australia. Inspired by the artist's slow growth and natural renewal, she uses pearls to symbolize the wonder of nature's slow creation. 👩🎨Tôn-Thất Minh-Nhật's lacquer work combines traditional Vietnamese lacquerwork with woodcarving, using the materials' colours and shades to reflect delicacy and emotion, while also referencing the royal temple architecture of his hometown. 👩🎨Soe Yu Nwe's rattan woven into snakes represents transformation, renewal and rebirth, using hair as a symbol of female identity. The work questions the boundaries of art and craft. 👩🎨Jason Lim's ceramics and kilns use leftover materials from the restoration of ancient kilns to create sculptures that reflect the restoration of history and natural landscapes. The work is inspired by ancient Chinese landscape paintings. 👩🎨 Faelerie's crocheted gloves are embellished with beads, hair and fangs to evoke emotions and conflicting feelings through touch, challenging the perception of gloves as a medium of tactile connection. 👩🎨 Melissa Cameron's street sweeper leaf jewelry uses street sweeper blades to create contemporary jewelry reflecting environmental conservation and global warming. 👩🎨 Vesal Bahmani Nik's contemporary jewelry uses agate, amber and silver thorns to challenge the strength and fragility of the female body, and reflects empowerment through the fusion of traditional techniques with contemporary ideas. 👩🎨 Genevieve Ang's sand and glass works use sand and glass materials to create works that reflect the geography of areas where sand is heavily mined, reflecting history and displacement. 👩🎨Sharearh Aghaei’s geometric stone jewellery is adorned with Islamic motifs known as ‘Shamse’ and explores the beauty of imperfection through the process of creating geometric patterns. 👩🎨Juma Adi’s Wayang puppets use the Wayang technique, or shadow puppetry, to tell stories of life and love, using intricate patterns and colours. “Lost in Translation” not only explores the intersection of materials and techniques, but also takes us on a journey of interpretations, in terms of material use, creation and cultural communication, challenging the notion of what is art and what is craft. And invite us to interpret the work according to our own experiences ----- 📍Venue: ATTA Gallery (Charoen Krung Soi 30, Warehouse 30) 🗓 Exhibition period: Today until October 27, 2024 ⏰️ Open every Wednesday - Sunday from 1:00 p.m. - 6:30 p.m. 💵 Free admission 🚘 Parking available ----- #attagallery #materialityofart #creativedistrictbangkok #thejoyoflivingwithart #IOTA2024 #lostintranslation #ATTAxIOTA24 #InsomniaScene #exhibition #art #Exhibition #Art #Get a discount without relying on luck #Exhibition review #100 ways to travel
