“DANTIP” Inspired by the ancient Thai Triphum cosmology, a belief system dividing existence into three realms (hell, human world, and heaven) The artist explores the concept of the "divine realm" (Dan Tip), a boundary beyond human perception.

The goal is to materialize this intangible realm, allowing viewers to experience the lightness and serenity associated with the heavens. The artwork aims to evoke this through shimmering, iridescent colors and the sound and movement of bells in the breeze. When touched by morning or evening sunlight, these elements cast a colorful glow on the ground, momentarily transforming the space into a tangible DANTIP for the audience to truly feel.
