Thaiwijit Poengkasemsomboon
For Thai artist Thaiwijit, a broken object is not just dead material; the lack of function transcends it to another level of usefulness, a kind of mysterious potential. The potential to become art. Thaiwijit has been collecting all kind of useless objects and making them useful in his own ways. He has assembled them into new lives.
