Artist statement
about the series "Identity - Bangkok Noi"
A group of young artisans are keeping the fading tradition of making religious sculptures alive in one of Bangkok oldest districts "Bangkok Noi".
Their skills have been handed down from generation to generation identifying the Cultural Heritage of their ancestors.
Cultural Heritage is an identity within a community.
It changes by time adopting to new circumstances but once completely forgotten the community breaks apart into anonymous individuals giving up it's character and individuality.
