Rhythm and Life No.2

The 38th National Exhibition of Art, 1992
2nd Prize, Silver Medal Award in Painting

The National Exhibition of Art is the oldest national competition stage of Thailand that has been organized constantly until now. It aims to encourage Thai artists to produce painting, sculpture, prints and multimedia works which present their artistic skills. Gold medal, silver medal and bronze medal award-winning works will become the property of Silpakorn University, who reserves the right to promote works in all channels.

Life experiences that Kiettisak Chanonnart, a National Artist in 2006 in Visual Art (Fine Art) as well as the 18th Artist of Distinction, have had became the inspiration for his work of art. He discovered unique means to express subconscious emotions through surreal abstract fine art, which have been successful and accepted. His artwork comprised parts of real objects and ones that do not truly exist or conform to conventional shapes, making them difficult to be distinguished whether they are real or unreal. These details represent the depth of our minds, which is far from common senses. The loss he experienced in the past propelled him to express his overwhelming grief through artistic interpretation.
