About the Artist
Sittiphon Lochaisong, alias ‘Bomb, was born in Mahasarakham, Thailand. He graduated from the University of Silpakorn, Bangkok, Thailand, with Bachelor and Master of Arts Degrees in visual arts.
His paintings are a subtle combination of traditional Thai spiritual influence combined with his own unique vision. Ambiguous dots are joined and assembled, creating free-floating stellar scapes where figures and symbols meet with imagination and sensation. The spontaneous combines with delicacy, reflecting and embracing the complex and extreme nature of existence — a place of birth, life, death and the eternal.
Lochaisong’s hope is to create paintings that have the potential to motivate the viewer to examine their own interconnected existence: where one can consciously perceive the unstoppable propulsion and expanse of nature and their place within it. His abstracted ‘universes’ are a place where the viewer is compelled to concentrate, and rewarded with a glimpse of a deeper understanding of a greater truth.

About the Residency
In the residency program, living among beautiful nature at Rimbun Dahan has given me inspiration to create paintings related to the environment here. I aim to create paintings that depict the beauty and wonder of trees, flowers, insects, wind, sunlight, rain, etc, through the process of working in a semi-abstract style. It is the presentation of nature as it appears, but combined with imagination, bringing reality towards a more fantastic world to show how magical nature really is.
