Collapsing Clouds Form Stars
By Philipa Lovatt l Som Supaparinya
Collapsing Clouds Form Stars is the title chosen for this exhibition, originally the name of a work created in 2021—a year when the COVID-19 pandemic left society deeply vulnerable. During this period, young Thais, heavily impacted, took to the streets to protest for the first time. Their actions reignited hope and momentum among older generations, who had long been yearning for such support. The protest movement spread across all age groups, encouraging even those who once fought in the past but never dared to challenge the system at its roots or speak freely. Under state control, they began to recognize how, in earlier times without today’s open platforms, those brave voices often faded into silence. The courage of the past, forged in an era of repression, carried a price immeasurable today.
