Déjà vu: Buddha is Hiding features leading Thai contemporary artist Natee Utarit’s first-ever solo exhibition with STPI. Curated by John Tung, one of Singapore’s most prominent young curators, the exhibition is a thoughtful exploration on decolonisation in the arts.
Utarit’s STPI works are a conclusion of his Déjà vu series, a five-year-long project through which he speculates on Buddha’s hypothetical journey to the West. Through innovative print and paper works, Utarit explores themes of identity and colonial conditioning, presenting a clinical yet urgent investigation into preconceived notions of the East and the West.
