Time Out says

In his first solo in Thailand, Marc Butler trades spectacle for something more insidious. His miniature set-pieces, no bigger than a child’s toybox, are sugar-coated traps – vivid, stylised, sometimes cartoonish, always a little unhinged. Think Pop Art on a comedown: colour-slick surfaces masking sharp psychological edges. They catch your eye before quietly unsettling you. There are no grand gestures here, just dioramas of quiet menace. One scene might feel almost playful – until you notice the contorted bodies or the absence of exit. Another sits in a block of sterile white, as if caught mid-dissection. These aren’t just sculptures. They’re traps for the gaze, baited with charm and painted like dreams. Until Jun 22. Free. Fakafei, 10.30am-6.30pm
