About this item

"Silvery moonlight gilds the spreading branches of a pipal tree, a variety of fig that grows in India and is considered sacred. Buddha achieved enlightenment while meditating beneath such a tree, which then became known as a bodhi, or 'enlightened' tree. Some of these trees in Thailand are said to derive from cuttings of the original bodhi. Saisunee's reverent painting receives applications of metallic foil for contrast."

"Ars longa, Vita brevis — Art is long, life is short. I like this quote from -Silpa Bhirasri.

"My name is Saisunee Supina, or 'Nan.' I was born in Chiang Mai in 1983 and studied printing at the Rajamangala University of Technology in Lanna, Chiang Mai.

"When I was in school, I had numerous opportunities to exhibit my work, which is why I continue to like creating artwork. I've done this since 1997.

"I collaborated with Royal Flora Ratchaphruek in Chiang Mai and with several hotels, spas, and cafes in Thailand and overseas, creating canvas art and pillar paintings.

"Inspiration for my work comes from natural movements, such as the rhythm of plants, trees, or leaves, and I blend it with my experience in the arts, Thai cultures, and Buddhism. I want everybody who sees these pieces to touch them and be impressed by Thai art.

"I'm still learning new techniques and putting what I've learned into practice at work, and I hope everyone enjoys it. Thank you kindly."
