Deciduous

By Khuanchanok Wiriyot

This mixed media work uses “Leaves” as a medium to reflect the deep connection between people and nature. Local Isaan leaves are central to the piece, carrying with them layers of traditional beliefs, folk wisdom, and healing practices that date back to prehistoric times. Through a meticulous craft process of metallic thread embroidery on leaves, the artist reinterprets these elements, showcasing both the delicacy and resilience of the material while weaving in stories of Isaan life and culture.
