Sahapon Chootinan
Sahapon Chootinan born in 1999. Lives and works in Chiang Mai. Sahapon Chootinan is an artist and creative practitioner who works with various media, including motion graphics, photography, still images, digital collages, programming, and interactive media. By utilizing different types of media, he can choose the most suitable ones to tell the stories he is interested in and convey them in the desired style. The combination of storytelling techniques from different disciplines allows him to create a rich narrative experience. The artist is fascinated by the methods of narrating truth, understanding, and the gaps in memories. He interprets these elements in ways that stimulate viewers’ imagination, resulting in the creation of new meanings or new perceptions of truth. The meanings and narratives constructed through data and imagination reflect the fluidity of reality and fiction. I also strive to comprehend and manipulate the control and manipulation of data sets from original narratives, intending to reveal the underlying truths of the story and explore the possibilities of understanding the course of events through these conceptual approaches.
