Montri Toemsombat
NANOTHAILAND
19 Jun - 10 Aug 2008

100 Tonson Gallery proudly presents an art exhibition “NANOTHAILAND”, the latest photography installation of the new generation distinguished artist, MONTRI
 
 
NANOTHAILAND is a series of photographs that addresses the artist's interest in cultural hybridism. The artist has photographed so-called minorities going about their daily lives in Thailand. Montri's subjects include immigrants, refugees and exiles. However, rather than reinforcing the idea of a minority - the idea that some people are essentially different from a general populace – Montri asks us to consider the fact that all societies and cultures are fundamentally a melting pot of differences. The exhibition deals with his background as a native Laotian speaker with a Thai identity through to the influence of his travels, his horror at the recent actions of the Myanmar junta and Thailand's current debates about censorship and 'Thai-ness'. NANOTHAILAND promises to be one of Montri's most powerful exhibitions to date.
 
The exhibition will be held during Thursday 19 June – Sunday 10 August 2008 and the Opening reception will be on Thursday 19 June, 2008.
