- Description
- By employing words as visual elements in this orange concrete poem, the artist represents the social dynamic between politicians, journalists, and artists at an art exhibition. Repeated instances of the word "artwork" (ผลงาน) are inscribed in a square, delineating the space, which is labelled "exhibition room" (ห้องแสดงศิลป์). The phrase "cameras of journalists and writers surrounding and photographing the politician" (กล้องถ่ายรูปของนักหนังสือพิมพ์ล้อมถ่ายนักการเมือง) forms a circle around a single instance of the word "politician" (นักการเมือง). In contrast, two rows of the phrase "creators of art" (คนสร้างงานศิลป์) are positioned below a single instance of the phrase "to ignore" (ไม่สน).
