MR.HALFMAN is The storyteller from a parallel-universe , He can be anyone , He can be anything. Or stay anywhere to tell a different story , MR.HALFMAN is the only person who can jump across Parallel-verse. Everythings that happens here is happening there place with different story , Let him tell you After he jumped back. KANT KANTAWAT B. CU(TE)BISM ARTIST & ILLUSTRATOR I am fascinated by the simplicity and power of Art Deco style, the art of Cubism, and vintage commercial art after the Industrial Revolution, which communicate directly and powerfully, along with the blend of millennium pop culture for a friendly atmosphere. mostly use black and white in my work with passion because I believe that when we cut out the elements of color, people will focus on shape and form, and understand the content and stories that I want to communicate more deeply. Along with being interested in the parallel-verse, I often question: If we were not who we are today and had decided to choose a different path, what would we be doing now, and what would the results be? I’m working in various fields through the MR.HALFMAN project, such as designing and conveying art through painting on canvas, painting on wood, and various mixed media. This includes merchandise design, decorating places and exhibitions, or even tattoo design. I believe that communicating work should not be limited to just one type of media.

THE NON-EYE CONTACT COFFEE

In this coffee shop, silence speaks louder than words each person quietly wrapped in the warmth of their cup. With no need for conversation or eye contact, everyone finds space to breathe, think, and simply be. / Here, solitude is not loneliness, but a shared moment of stillness before the world begins. The coffee isn't just a drink it's a ritual of calm, of clarity, before stepping through the door. And once they leave, each person is just a little more ready to face the new day ahead.

THE SQUARE TABLE OF MEMORIES

More than just a piece of furniture, this square table holds stories that can't be measured. Laughter, tears, quiet glances, and warm embraces have all passed through its four edges. It has witnessed celebrations, confessions, arguments, and reconciliations. Every meal shared here becomes a memory, stitched into the woodgrain like silent echoes. This table is not just where people gather it's where they truly connect.

THE WINE DANCE

In the glow of evening light, glasses clink and laughter swirls like music in the air. Conversations flow as effortlessly as a graceful waltz each word a step in a shared rhythm. Friends and strangers move together in invisible harmony, bound by warmth and wine. This is not just a gathering it’s a dance of spirits, stories, and sparkling connection. And for one night, the world softens into joy.

THE SILENCE DINING

The meal is so exquisite, words feel unnecessary—each bite met with quiet reverence. No one speaks, not out of distance, but out of deep appreciation for the moment. Every pause between mouthfuls says more than a conversation ever could. Around this table, presence replaces performance, and silence becomes a shared language. Together, without words, they nourish both body and bond.

JUST ANOTHER MONDAY / MONO PEOPLE

Monday arrives not with surprise, but with weight we’ve come to know so well. Tasks, responsibilities, and quiet doubts walk beside us like old companions. Still, we carry on one goal at a time, one breath after another. Each little worry makes the small victories feel like sunlight breaking through clouds. It’s just another Monday, yes but that doesn’t mean it’s meaningless.

Their bond is unspoken, built on trust, respect, and the beauty of being alone together. In stillness, they understand each other more deeply than words allow. The cat doesn’t follow but stays close in its own way. MAYBE I'M THE DOG PERSON IN ANOTHER-VERSE .

THE DOG PERSON - They walk with loyalty by their side, a wagging tail marking every step with joy. Their days are filled with simple gestures shared glances, quiet company, a sense of being seen without explanation. The dog doesn't just follow; it believes in them. With that trust, the world feels a little lighter.

4x3 STORY TELLING FROM ANOTHER-VERSE

40x40 Acrylic on canvas /
Bangkok Solo Exhibition 2025 -

Twelve artworks. Six parallel story . Each pair of images echoes parallel lives unfolding across unseen worlds quietly mirroring, subtly diverging. In these stories, happiness is not singular or universal, but shapeshifting' born from solitude, sparked by connection, hidden in absurdity, or blooming in the mundane. This is a glimpse into other-verses where joy wears different faces, and every version of a moment matters. One reality cannot hold all truths but twelve images might get closer.

A dimensional narrative unfolds, where form replaces line, and silence becomes part of the storytelling.
