Complexity (Communicate Action From A Person With Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder)

I have used the symptoms of my Obsessive Compulsive Disorder to compose the project, an abstraction experiment seen through the background of Bangkok's atmosphere. The unstable urban lifestyle, intense political climate, unpredictable situations, and city colors are all components I found in my paintings. 

Bangkok, the 24-hour non-stop city, is my hometown and a battleground of the lives stuck in it; a place where surrealistic and realistic existences meet and often overlap each other. The ongoing problems caused by the dictatorship affect the city's ambiance, and I can see, smell, taste, touch, and hear all of them.

Abstraction can tell things, and like our eyes it never lies. I use myself as a medium; I feel the city's breathing, and convert it to a visual experience. A chaotic feeling of unstable perception in my mind walks me through the obsession that makes me produce the monotonous lines in my pictures. These lines lead to many things, such as events that keep repeating without  stop. Streets, roads, road lights, buildings, rivers, and other parts of the city are silent/dumb/tongueless witnesses that always play a supporting role in the show of the storm. In this project, I use them as protagonists to reveal the surrounding violence and turbulence. Layers of messy systemic visual language present teeming and disordered lives in the metropolis. I interpret the city’s components in overlapping patterns that shake people's hearts and bodies. The vivid primary colors in this series illustrate Bangkok's dark and dazzling night and day life.
