FAKE ADVERTISING

By Sippakorn Chinklang (Luckyleg)
Opening Reception: 13 July, 2019 from 18.00 hrs.

In the past, present up until the future, persuasive policy to reform, to organize, of improvement, of conflict and so on operates as a propaganda to brainwash people into behave according to the pre-determined regime. Also, it makes people fantasize about progress. This reflects current reality of the overall political climate, which makes people feel lost and contradicts to what is declared in the propaganda. This is, by no means, the scheme created by those in power. My goal is to translate this concept into a poster that is on the contrary to existing words and images by using analogy and metaphor, the Speaker recounts people’s history under repression, restraint, harassment, restriction, deception and more during a political era.
