Ruangsak Anuwatwimon & Udom Udomsrianan : HUMAN vs NATURE
The Designs of Udom Udomsrianan and the Art of Ruangsak Anuwatwimon, while paying respect to its beauty and underlining its fragility, are mainly questioning the paradoxes of our violent relationship towards nature. Through the spectrum of death and its rituals, Ruangsak presents us with a major installation work made of human hearts shaped sculptures. After collecting dead animals and having these bodies go through the ritual of cremation, the ashes and remains are mixed with natural resins in order to create the human hearts. The cremation, its religious-like process, underlines the necessity of rethinking our relations to our extended wilderness-bound family. As for Udom's "natural life" series which are his only creation not being made of raw natural materials, moreover the limited edition of 10 underlines further more the scarcity of species.

"Revenge" installation series depicts un-expected aspects of the relation between animal lovers and they beloved creatures where one loves the image of the other more than its reality. "Revenge" inverts the positions of master and pet, placing it from the point of view of the animal seeking revenge beyond death for its years of captivity. Through these installations, Ruangsak is applying the reversal of perspective process that is his trade mark in exploring the violence of relationships between man and nature. In this case violence is unveiled, from its hide-out : a sincere love feeling.
