The Birth of Dem.

Once upon a time, In the faraway southeast land. There was a brave little penguin, who dared to fight against the evil ‘Snake King’ to free people from tyranny. This might sound like a bedtime story. But it is a reality in Thailand. Our young generation is fighting for real democracy, knowing this might cost their lives.
‘The Birth of Dem’ is inspired by Sandro Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus. I created this artwork in order to support the pro-democracy movement, not only in Thailand, But also in Myanmar and the rest of the world. With faith, the birth of real democracy will be no longer a bedtime story.

ThaiThaiLand

In a land where money rules, ThaiThaiLand's vibrant culture faces an ironic twist. Wealth can flip the script, turning wrong into right and right into wrong. Influence flows with currency, bending rules and perspectives alike. It's a place where money speaks louder than truth, shaping decisions, justice, and the very fabric of society.

Poker Face

When veggies play cards, they mean business—even when things heat up!
