Artist Statement

Rungruang Sittirerk was born in 1988 at Chiangmai, Thailand. He graduated in Bachelor of Fine Arts (Sculpture) from King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Ladkrabang University, Thailand in 2010, and received the Master of Fine Arts (Visual Art) from Silpakorn University in 2015.

His works focus on modern capitalism and globalization. He connects issues through the stories of displaced people in the urban areas and through exploration of content relevant to people of the working class. He was chosen as a young artist in the “Brand New 2018” and in 2019 he was selected to participate in the EARLY YEARS PROJECT. He still has shown work both at home and abroad, such as Seven master samurai project exhibited at the Art Center, Chiang Mai Art Center, Somewhere Not Here at Tentacle N22 Thailand, OITA Sculpture Festival in OITA, Japan.
