Presented by The Physics Room, CIRCUIT and Asia New Zealand Foundation, Space-Body Entanglement is a programme of recent Thai artists video. Introduced on the night by visiting Bangkok curator Mary Pansanga, and featuring an intervention in the gallery by artist Tantachai Bandasak.
The film screening will feature a selection of work by six Thai artists; Jeanne Penjan Lassus, Pam Virada, Saroot Supasuthivech, Tulapop Saenjaroen, Korakrit Arunanondchai & Alex Gvojic (with boychild), Pathompon Mont Tesprateep.
Space-Body Entanglement explores the interplay between the body and the spatial environment. Throughout the programme the physical and transcendental aspects of the depicted body interact within various landscapes, offering an exploration of spatiality, including that of the cinema screen itself. Encompassing an array of diverse forms and interpretations these works explore deafness, supernatural visitations, Cold War histories, images of depression and Thai animation history.
