MONTOPIA
Project Statement "What Ifs.. Mon is a civilized past that prospered in Dvaravati, today Mon People end the state, but not the end of the race. What Ifs.. Paris is the ideal place for refugees to cross over to the sea to start a better life ..." The conflict of Political and religious led to war. The outcome of the war caused the separation of nationalism. Minorities in each country are restricted to human rights such as human trafficking, stateless children, and genocide. Obviously from the refugee crisis that happened in 2 years ago. Case of the exiled Rohingya from Burma. The situation of human flow reflects the artist's past experience. Burmese political refugees since 1977 have resulted in family members not having id-card and became to the migrant worker. The artist decided to fight for the identity and right as a Thai. Thai citizenship recognizes the difference in quality of life between stateless children and Thai children. Artists reflect the past through the context of the ethereal life of the stateless. There are differences, but in harmony with the main people in each area where the artist lives. That become Montopia exhibition at Cité Internationale des Arts and Université Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France. The creative process of this work is based on assumptions about traveling to find out what is a measure of humanity under the boundary line, the law, religion, the race in the present. Relating to Paris, the area where the French government provided assistance by getting immigrants to live. A space for experimentation, creativity and results through this exhibition.
