Personal Space and Dotspace – Darwin

Personal Space
The idiom of Personal Space has many connotations as a citizen living in amodern world, a world that is definitely more complex to exist in than in previous times. Navigating day to day life is now challenged by new technologies and invasive constructs; spam, Facebook, cctv surveillance and marketing profilers, to name a few. The exhibition Personal Space invites artists from Darwin and Beijing to question notions of personal space, not in the literal sense, but in relation to private space, shared space and public space.

Dotscape: Sutthirat Supaparinya
Annoyed by the interrupted view from the train window caused by advertising posters, Supapaprinya shows a sequence of blurred landscape images traveling from Bangkok to Chiang Mai, unraveling the threat to the natural landscape and daily life by commercial development in Thailand.
