Artist explores identity through Earth
Bangkok Post
|June 24, 2025
Thai artist Wasinburee Supanichvoraparch invites viewers to explore the relationship between human identity and Earth during “Werdin”, which is running at La Lanta Fine Art until Aug 9.
-
His new solo exhibition takes viewers on a journey through din (Thai for Earth or clay), not merely as a raw material for ceramics, but as a symbol of the process of becoming.
The exhibition’s title plays with the German word werden — meaning to be, to become or to come into being — and merges it with the English phrase we are and the Thai word din. The result, We are din or Werdin, suggests the fusion of human identity with Earth as material, body and cultural consciousness.
