Time Out says

Yaowarat is the always-bustling road that cuts through the center of Bangkok Chinatown. During the day, Yaowarat is Bangkok's gold trade and food ingredient market. When night falls, it turns into a massive street food area lined up with stalls offering everything from grilled seafood sticks served with spicy dip to rare Chinese desserts you can't get elsewhere.

What’s on

Lose yourself inside Filipino sculptor Jinggoy Buensuceso's origami-inspired installation

Yaowarat welcomes the Bangkok debut of Filipino artist and sculptor Jinggoy Buensuceso with Cosmic Bloom, an immersive solo exhibition taking over Luenrit. Known as one of the Philippines’ leading contemporary sculptors, Buensuceso builds large-scale installations from industrial materials, shaping them through an origami-inspired visual language that explores motion, tension and constant change. Spread across multiple levels, Cosmic Bloom follows a journey of entry, expansion and release. Here, sculpture becomes an environment to move through rather than something viewed from a distance. The result is a striking exploration of perception, consciousness and our place within the wider universe. June 4-July 28. Free entry. Luenrit Yaowarat. 9am-5pm
