Bangkok University Gallery (City Campus)
Exhibition period: 18 September - 29 October 2016

The exhibition As They Grow Older And Wiser marks the debut of a new photographic series and installation by Ang Song Nian, presented as part of the artist’s participation in the Bangkok University Gallery’s Artist-in-Residence programme.
At the heart of the exhibition is Everything Can Be Measured – a site specific work made up of six installations created as a response to the artist’s observation on the methods of control instrumented in ways which potted plants, as well as trees – young and old, are being manipulated to fit into the urban landscape of Bangkok.
This exhibition marks not only the debut of Everything Can Be Measured (2016), but also As They Grow Older And Wiser (2016), a new series of photographic images in which the artist re-presents the controlled environment of plant nurseries found in the Ongkharak district, Nakhon Nayok.
