Biography

Angkrit Ajchariyasophon is an accomplished practitioner of non-objective Thai abstraction,
and has also long championed fellow Thai artists in his independent gallery “Artist+Run.” His
galleries in Bangkok and Chiang Rai have become central gathering places for highlighting the
current intergenerational community of Thai artists. Working from a deep-seated fear “of
disappearing,” Ajchariyasophon’s own artwork goes beyond the aesthetic and engages
interaction to foment change. His vertical line paintings are inspired by the walking meditations
of local Buddhist monks: through slowly repeated applications he mirrors their attempts to “know
all moments.”
