Time Out says

Bangkok has a habit of erasing its own stories. In a city that never stops rebuilding, the buildings that once defined its skyline are quietly slipping away, taking people’s memories with them. Vanishing Bangkok catches those final moments before they’re gone for good. Through photographs of three icons – Scala, Sri Fuangfung and the Robot Building – the exhibition mourns the city’s fading modernist past while preserving its fragments. The works hang inside Vanich House, a creaking wooden structure once used as a garage, now reborn as a vessel for remembrance. Concrete prints lean against weathered beams, creating a strange tenderness between decay and revival. The show doesn’t simply document what’s lost – it reminds us how forgetting happens, brick by brick, until nostalgia becomes the only architecture left.

Until November 2. Free. Vanich House, 10.30am-5.30pm
