Notes
- Catalogue published by the Singapore Art Museum in conjunction with the exhibition, "Manit Sriwanichpoom : Phenomena and Prophecies" held in Singapore from 7 October 2010 - 7 November 2010.
- Manit Sriwanichpoom’s photographs deal with themes of consumerism and other Thai social and political issues through his strategies of critical documentation, as well as staged satirical compositions of the state of Thai society today. The myriad appearances or phenomena that his works conjure, reflect the artist’s belief in the power of brutal truths, which surfaces at times in the form of painful prophecies. They also highlight his peculiar artistic role as one that treads on the thin line between merely recording and purposefully composing history, at a time where even historical narratives are not exempt from mass media constructions.--Curatorial statement
