Acrylic • 80 × 100 ซม. • 2026
"The Chao Phraya River Is Also Known As The Me Nam River. This River Is A Testament To Thailand'S Long Literary Tradition And Rich History. Up To Now, The River Still Maintains Its Own Beauty After Many Changes And Developments In Bangkok City. The Chao Phraya River Originates From The Confluence Of The Ping And Nan Rivers. The Length Of The River Is Up To 372Km, Flowing Through The Central Plains, The Capital Bangkok, The Gulf Of Thailand And Finally Reaching The Coast. The Entire River Is Divided Into Two Branches In Chainat Province, The Separated Branch Is Called Tha Chin River - Flowing Parallel To The Main Branch Chao Phraya And Then Flowing Into The Gulf Of Thailand. Running Along The Chao River, We Will See The Third Largest Temple In Bangkok Called Wat Arun - Temple Of Dawn. Located Right On The Western Bank Of The Peaceful Chao Phraya River. Wat Arun Was Built In The 17Th Century And Has A Unique Architectural Style In Thailand. What Catches The Eye Of Visitors Is The Impression That The Temple Is Built Of Bricks And Covered Entirely With Colorful Ceramics. Standing Right At The Highest Peak Of The Temple, You Can Admire The Chao Phraya River (Dubbed "Venice Of The East"). Why Is It Called Binh Minh Pagoda? Because The Best Time To Visit The Temple Is Early In The Morning. When The Sun Just Rises, Go To Wat Arun, Find A High Position And Admire The Golden Sunrise On The Temple Roofs. This Is Also The Inspiration For Me To Create Two Works."
