Art Statement: In (the) box Solo Photograph Exhibition
Men’s perspectives on woman, women are seen as objects that stimulate sexual emotion. “If you didn’t show-off your lady parts, you wouldn’t be as remotely prone to sexual harassment.” This old though is out date, but we do not know that it will be fade away from our society or come back again. No one know. Are we moving to the shining future where people look other people with dignity? Whatever we will be, please look other human as human not an object. Sitthiporn’s exhibition will be displayed at GREEN LANTERN GALLERY until the end of August.
