Adventure in Eighty-Two x Forty Planet
Kajonsak Rungsuriyan’s latest exhibition doesn’t so much tell a story as stage a parable. It begins on a nameless planet, a place both strange and eerily ordinary, where life once moved in lockstep with the natural world. Over centuries, though, harmony curdled into quiet destruction. The inhabitants learned to take until taking felt normal, a pattern passed down like heirlooms, too familiar to question. Kajonsak calls this imagined world Eighty-Two x Forty. Its people see not depletion but the smallness of their own desires, as if narrow vision were a form of survival. Spend long enough there, the artist suggests, and even you might accept it, even like it. The exhibition asks a disquieting question: at what point does complicity stop feeling like choice?
Until October 5. Free. KYLA Gallery and Wine Bar, 3pm-midnight
