Gallery VER

In 2018, Gallery VER invites Thitibodee Rungteerawattanon to revive “Thai Message” a work we’ve borrowed from the collection of Maiiam Contemporary Museum for one year. Gallery Ver invites everyone to participate in this project in our restroom, the longest show at our gallery. In this unusual circumstance in society, we hope that our restroom will be another space for waste disposal and for the release of creative, powerful ideas.

Thai Message Episode V Details:
1. We accept all kind of works. No limits on number of works. First come, first served. The project will accept all works from today until the opening of the exhibition.
2. All works will be shown for the same duration in the main room of Gallery Ver and Project Room by Gallery Ver.

About Thai Message
In 2006 Thitibodee Rungteerawattanon and Somyot Rattanasuwannakul created Thai Message Project. Anyone could send their works to London and all the works were snuck in, guerilla style, to be exhibited in the restroom at the Tate Modern. The photos of that exhibition were brought back and shown in Thailand, both with and without invitation. Maiiam Contemporary Museum has now acquired the project for its collection.
