Free Fall, the first solo exhibition of Bangkok-based artist Pratchaya Phinthong in Singapore considers ideas of self-determination and objects as avatars of chance. The works of Pratchaya Phinthong marks a critical strand of conceptual practices in Thai contemporary art. Much of the artist’s conceptually driven practice is premised on collaborative processes, modes of exchange and the transference of artistic agency that redefine the value and significance of art.
Translating research, scientific discoveries, economic theories, and even rumours into experiential forms and gestures, the exhibition presents major explorations underpinning Phinthong’s two decades of practice that reflects his modes of conceptual thinking and research.
