Saroot Supasuthivech employs a multifarious research approach to reimagine a range of localities, merging chronologies and perspectives. The artist not only looks toward geographical and political facts, but also takes into account the ways specific sites are situated and depicted in memory and discourse. Reacting to popular and official narratives, alongside ancient traditions and their waning relevance, he examines the corruption and deterioration of history and identity. Supasuthivech constantly engages with reassemblage through the thematic, aesthetic and experiential: he often combines installation, image, and sound, constructing intensely sensorial hyperrealities. The artist unearths marginalized oral histories and buried memories, evoking the sacrosanct and forming his own rites of ritual and remembrance.
