Tanatchai Bandasak

  • Artist Tanatchai Bandasak began his career as a filmmaker, however following his studies at art school in France, he began exploring installation and sculptural strategies for presenting moving images. His recent works have demonstrated  a preoccupation with time and materiality – which are hallmarks of his generation in Thailand – iterated through fine-grained sensitivity to the photomedia apparatus. Bandasak has the reflexive inclination of a media artist but this is not stylistic; rather, it comes from keen awareness that the image-making process (still or moving, by hand or by machine) is itself temporal and materially contingent. His practice is informed by a tradition of Buddhist conceptualism however this is expressed in philosophical rather than visual terms in his works.
