About Ruangsak Anuwatwimon
Ruangsak Anuwatwimon is a multidisciplinary artist whose work is related to the issues of nature, the environment, local superstition, and the disastrous consequences of human activities and consumption. His artistic approach comprises in-depth research on the topic and often includes an excursion into the specific site to collect and observe his subjects of interest. He frequently works in collaboration with experts from non-art sectors.
Many of Ruangsak’s works take the form of long-term projects. Anthropocene (2008–present) explores the destructive impact of human consumption on ecosystems through the collection of toxic soil samples from various locations. Golem (2011–present) attempts to construct a human figure from the ashes of different organisms gathered over time. Another ongoing project investigates the ecological destruction of the Mekong River; he has joined the Mekong Fulcrum project and conducts related activities as part of ART WORMs, a collective examining the impact of infrastructural development on Mekong-region ecosystems.
Ruangsak has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and has participated in the Thailand Biennale 2020, the Singapore Biennale 2019, and the 11th Taipei Biennial (2018).
