Exhibition · Bangkok Kunsthalle · Bangkok
“Thai people forget easily” (คนไทยลืมง่าย) is a phrase often used to describe collective amnesia. Taking its title from “Going Astray” (1932), the first Thai sound film, the exhibition explores cultural forgetting through a film that has largely disappeared. What remains are scattered fragments: its soundtrack, photographs, and newspaper records of the lawsuit surrounding its release, neither entirely lost nor fully present. Drawing on these traces, Braty presents a body of work spanning sound, moving image, and painting, considering how a film that can no longer be seen continues to endure within cultural memory. The exhibition is part of the Open Ground Program by Bangkok Kunsthalle. The exhibition audio equipment is partly supported by Fuzion Far East with Genelec. Artist's Biography Braty is a multidisciplinary collective working across film, fashion, sound, writing, and spatial practice. The collective develops projects that explore contemporary culture through collaboration, research, and process-based experimentation. Braty operates as an open and evolving platform, shaped by the contributors, contexts, and communities involved in each project. Emphasis is placed on shared authorship, cross-disciplinary exchange, and adaptive working methods. Through the use of time, space, and participation, Braty produces immersive installations and experiential works that translate cultural research into accessible, embodied experiences. The collective aims to create environments that encourage engagement, dialogue, and reflection, positioning creative practice as a tool for cultural inquiry and collective encounter. Braty is now based at The Garments, where a community is shared by both emerging and established artists. Braty Collective Jittarin Wuthiphan, Ramil Sukkree, Rasita Lertvalaikul, and Nutthawadee Sirijamlongwong.
