이번 ‘팝타이사진’ 전시를 통하여 같은 아시아 지역에서 살아가는 태국의 작가들과 문화 예술 교류의 기회가 마련되어 매우 기쁘게 생각합니다. 저는 몇 차례 태국을 여행한 경험은 있지만 전시회에 함께 참여하여 작가님들을 만나거나 작품들을 직접 보는 일은 처음입니다. 그래서 이번 전시회에 남다른 설렘과 의미가 있습니다. 다른 지역의 환경, 역사, 문화적 배경에서 생활하며 작업하는 동시대 예술가의 세계관, 시대적 고민, 예술적 표현이 담긴 작품을 감상하는 시간은, 그 사회와 문화의 내밀한 정서와 감각의 세계를 여행하는 것이라고 생각합니다. 앞으로도 이러한 교류가 활발하여 더욱 다채로운 주제의 기획전으로 이어지길 기대하며, 이 전시를 준비하신 모든 분에게 감사의 마음을 전합니다.


ฉันรู้สึกยินดีเป็นอย่างยิ่งที่นิทรรศการ ‘PhapthaySajin’ครั้งนี้เปิดโอกาสให้มีการแลกเปลี่ยนทางวัฒนธรรมและศิลปะกับศิลปินไทยที่อาศัยอยู่ในภูมิภาคเอเชียเดียวกัน ฉันเดินทางมาเมืองไทยหลายครั้ง แต่นี่เป็นครั้งแรกที่ได้เข้าร่วมนิทรรศการ พบปะศิลปิน หรือชมผลงานด้วยตนเอง นั่นเป็นเหตุผลที่นิทรรศการนี้มีความน่าตื่นเต้นและมีความหมายเป็นพิเศษ ฉันเชื่อว่าการชื่นชมผลงานที่มีโลกทัศน์ ความกังวลของยุคสมัย และการแสดงออกทางศิลปะของศิลปินร่วมสมัยที่อาศัยและทำ งานในสภาพแวดล้อม ด้านสิ่งแวดล้อม ประวัติศาสตร์ และภูมิหลังทางวัฒนธรรมของภูมิภาคต่างๆ นั้นเป็นการเดินทางสู่โลกแห่งอารมณ์ความรู้สึกและความรู้สึกใกล้ชิดของสังคมและวัฒนธรรมนั้น ฉันหวังว่าการแลกเปลี่ยนดังกล่าวจะยังคงดำเนินต่อไปและนำไปสู่การจัดนิทรรศการพิเศษที่มีธีมที่หลากหลายมากขึ้น และอยากจะแสดงความขอบคุณทุกคนที่จัดเตรียมนิทรรศการนี้
