\u3010Digital + Street + Art \u3011<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In late September, in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand,<\/p>\n

I carried out my new art project<\/p>\n

that fuses digital and street art,<\/p>\n

titled \"Where The Light Is.\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(= The Place Where Light Exists)<\/p>\n

(September 17, 2022)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

A giant glowing painting was suddenly projected onto the streets at night.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Both locals and foreign tourists stopped to admire it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Since it was merely a projection,<\/p>\n

there was no need to paint directly on buildings<\/p>\n

or leave semi-permanent marks, unlike traditional street art.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However,<\/p>\n

I am certain that an artistic<\/p>\n

\u201csomething\u201d will remain<\/p>\n

in the minds and hearts of those who saw the work,<\/p>\n

perhaps semi-permanently.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The event took place near the famous \u201cKhaosan Road\u201d in Bangkok.<\/p>\n

Khaosan Road was once known as a backpacker\u2019s paradise,
\na gathering spot for budget accommodations and travelers.<\/p>\n

Nowadays, it has transformed into a vibrant nightlife destination,
\nlined with bars and clubs blasting loud music all night long,
\nattracting massive crowds every day.<\/p>\n

Initially, the project was planned to be held on Khaosan Road.
\nHowever, the road was brightly lit like daytime even at night,
\ncrowded with people, filled with countless shops,
\nand overwhelmed by music so loud that it made clothing and lungs vibrate.<\/p>\n

As a result, the event was quickly relocated to
\na nearby street just off Khaosan Road.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

What did people feel
\nwhen they suddenly saw a large glowing painting appear at night?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Thank you, Bangkok!<\/p>\n

After that,
\nI traveled further north in Thailand and brought the
\nWhere The Light Is project to a town called Pai.<\/p>\n

There, I received a very mystical message.
\nPlease check it out as well.<\/p>\n
