“Under Construction” is a solo exhibition by Kwanchai Lichaikul after spending almost two years in preparing this new collection of paintbrush drawings to portray urban environment in bird’s eye view. Lichaikul’s development began from his unravelling of storytelling method in Thai mural paintings, with an emphasis on howthe world and the order of time are perceived and comprehended in two dimensions. Now his works has been further developed and expanded as representations of today’s society.

In his effort to exploremeanings behind areas of politics, economics, religions and living, especially the critical approach towards area management, many of his works display the proportion of nature, politics and human living through his unique skill of drawing and improvisation technique. Although these landscapes are imaginary, they depict the chaotic world based on reality. Lichaikul’s works not only present the idea on politics of area, but also reveal to the eyes of the audience awide-angle perspective of the relationship between human and this world.
