NekoEyes is a Thai illustrator and manga artist whose work explores irony, observation, and the quiet absurdities of urban life. His recent series, inspired by encounters with monitor lizards in Bangkok’s Lumphini Park, reimagines everyday scenes through a contemporary lens influenced by Japanese ukiyo-e. He hopes audiences will resonate with the series’ understated humor and recognize something familiar in the monitor lizards’ surprisingly human predicaments.

NekoEyes is an illustrator and comic artist exploring urban ecology and environmental themes.
He is delighted to debut his first illustration series, HELLO, I’M HERE: 13 Views of Lumphini Park, at Bangkok Illustration Fair 2026. These black-and-white illustrations capture monitor lizards and park visitors with humour and tenderness, inviting collectors, art enthusiasts, and urban dwellers to rediscover everyday life.
His BACC exhibitions include a collaborative climate activism manga on rotational farming of the Karen indigenous people of northern Thailand with R2S (EarthRights International) in 2022 and the silent manga about family legacy, Harvest of a Lifetime, currently on view for Bangkok Comics Art Festival.
I Aspire to Be Happy and Healthy เราต่างมุ่งหวังความแข็งแรงทั้งกายและใจ

I Am Immersed in Your Presence เราต่างลุ่มหลงในตัวตนตรงหน้า
