Fruit Bowl of Happiness

In Chinese culture, fruits have meaning. Many of them symbolizes happiness, thus there is a tradition of fruit giving. At the top right corner, there's a Chinese character that means "joy" to emphasize on that concept. This illustration hopes to become the fruit bowl of one's house, and bring happiness to their home.

Bougainvillea at Noon

This was inspired by the bougainvillea in my home garden, it’s not grown as a big bush but they are strings of stems, growing and drooping. I see them everyday from my office, the color contrast between the petals and the sky has a captivating effect to me.

Flatsedge at Dusk

This piece was inspired when I visited my relative’s garden in Suphanburi. Back then, I didn’t know what this plant was called but I was very impressed by its form. It was at dusk when I saw it, so I decided to replicate that feeling of calmness and beauty onto my illustration.

Playground

"Playground (2026)" is a representation of how drawing as a medium is the artist's sandbox for imagination. By using some elements from children's building block toy, they are placed and altered from its usual form to reflect the artist's perspective of this world, creating a personal playground where everything is possible.

This illustration was printed out and displayed by KPP-Antalis at IAF 2026 in Singapore.

Littered Dream Syndrome

As we grow up, we discarded our dreams along the passage of time. These dream became weeds on the side road, wishing that the ones who have left them are doing well.

Content (2025)

Installation art for “MMAD Cube: What if we had no pronouns” exhibition at MMAD at MunMun Srinakarin (10 May - 29 June 2025).

This artwork entails the idea of self love. To be their true self from the happiness within, that originates from self acceptance. This acceptance has moved past the worldly matters and would like to show the world “how happy I am”.

Memento of Teaveler
