Description
Pinaree Sanpitak is a prolific Thai conceptual artist whose artworks reference the female body and womanhood. Working in a diverse range of mediums such as installation, printmaking, drawing, painting and sculptures, her art is a distinct interpretation of the body as a site of experience through organic forms. Executed in delicate textures and cream colours, Quietly Floating Sky Notes #1 exudes a sense of tranquillity. The piece is a meditative interpretation of cloud forms, and emotive response to light and space.

She has participated in various biennales including the Jakarta Biennale, the Busan Biennale, the Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art, and the Setouchi Triennale.
