This exhibition features a body of 20 selected artworks by Thai artist, Montree Moungkun. With his creative practice grounded strongly in the cultural research of folklore and spirituality, Montree has developed an unrestrained approach of semi-abstraction, using vibrant colours and languid brushstrokes to create layered narratives of the mystical, the naive and the twisted. Many of his large artworks on show, including a 6-meter long scroll, bear intriguing semblance to elements of phantasmagoria and fantasy.
As an emerging tour-de-force in Thailand’s contemporary art scene, Montree has since completed his major solo exhibition at the National Art Gallery, Bangkok, and is in preparation for his second show slated with them in 2014. M Gallery is pleased to present his first solo exhibition here in Singapore.
