RatthaNude (2025)
Nude photography is considered one of the highest forms of art. However, on the other hand, explicit images or even suggestive content on social media are often treated merely as representations intended to satisfy human lust.
Ratthanin seeks to challenge these perceptions and reactions from viewers by using various parts of his own body in close-up photographs, rendering the physical distinctions unrecognizable. Additionally, he employs mixed media to provoke viewers with a question: to search for the image of 'that thing'.
In this context, the phrase 'that thing' refers to the male genitalia or other things that are often considered inappropriate or taboo to mention directly in Thai culture. Through this, Ratthanin encourages the audience to reflect: What exactly is this 'thing'? Or perhaps, it is humanity itself that has become overly fascinated with visual stimuli and desire.
