Time Out says

Beneath the polished veneer of history lies a terrain scarred by violence and silence. This exhibition excavates the emotional, political and spiritual debris left by authoritarian rule and broken ideologies – where dreams have rotted, power clings like rust and collective memory becomes a host for parasites. A striking collage stitches together pixelated portraits of Thailand’s military prime ministers, their blurred faces overlaid on a fragmented female form – a haunting symbol of sexuality erased and controlled under Cold War patriarchy. This decay seeps from past to present, a toxic residue of militarism embedded in the nation’s very flesh. There are no tidy resolutions here. Instead, the work unsettles, challenges and disrupts – a disillusioned landscape where history exhales through its own poisonous remains, inviting us to confront an unstable past and a future already lost.

Until September 20. Free. Gallery VER, midday-6pm
