liminal house exhibition by Sanitas studio
Thai artist Sanitas Pradittasnee of Sanitas Studio brings collectively a contemplative assortment of her large-scale architectural installations for the Liminal House exhibition at Noble Play in Bangkok. On show from November 3, 2023, to February 4, 2024, each bit encapsulates hidden meanings and messages delving into spirituality and society, and their intricate co-existence. Collectively, items akin to Khao Mo which stacks mirrored containers to echo the towering silhouettes of mountains, and Home of Silence which resembles a meditation pavilion, discover how enduring spiritual philosophies affect their ever-evolving academic, social, and cultural environment and vice versa.
In her creations, the self of ‘structure’ is decreased whereas the altering ‘nature’ is highlighted from reflection of surrounding nature. The earth serves as a reminder of the origins of all issues, the basis of existence, inviting us to attune to our bodily senses and finally return to the sensation of vacancy. Amidst fixed adjustments in our environment, her artworks search to craft an inviting house the place folks can decelerate, mirror, and spend time with themselves.
