This ebook explores the significance of landscapes in art and their connection to political ideology. It delves into the Thai state's nation-building process through the series "The Boundary of Solitude," which focuses on the forest landscape of the Phu Phan Mountain range and the Mekong River border area. These areas hold geopolitical importance due to their historical role as a battleground for political ideologies during the Cold War. The artist's journey through these remote regions transforms their perception of the landscape, highlighting its role in self-existence and its connection to political activities. The ebook also raises questions about the artist's identity within the imagined community of Thailand.
