15 artists from 10 countries come together at Art Jewel to explore identity, culture, and perception through contemporary art, now on view until Monday, 28 April 2026

Bangkok’s art scene continues to expand in bold, international directions, and this April, a new exhibition invites audiences to see the world through multiple lenses. Titled VISION, the contemporary art showcase brings together 15 artists from 10 countries in a cross-cultural dialogue that feels both timely and expansive.
Held at Art Jewel, a newly positioned exhibition space on the 5th floor of Siam Paragon, the show reflects a growing appetite for global contemporary art in the heart of the city. Presented in collaboration with Mighty One and All About Art Gallery from Singapore, VISION is less about a singular narrative and more about coexistence, where different artistic voices intersect, challenge, and inspire one another.
A Global Conversation Through Art
At its core, VISION is an exploration of perspective. The exhibition moves across continents, drawing together works from Europe, Asia, and South America, each shaped by distinct cultural contexts and lived experiences.
From abstraction and portraiture to urban art and conceptual experimentation, the show captures a wide spectrum of contemporary practice. Some works pulse with the rhythm of urban culture, layered with graphic energy and movement. Others turn inward, reflecting on memory, identity, and the emotional landscapes that define human experience.
What ties them together is not style, but intention, a shared curiosity about how we see, interpret, and construct meaning.
Artists Who Blur Boundaries
Among the highlights is PichiAvo, the Spanish duo known for merging classical art references with the raw immediacy of street culture. Their work sits at an intriguing intersection of past and present, where mythology meets graffiti in striking visual compositions.
Russian artist Daria Kolosova brings a more refined, almost luminous quality to the exhibition. Working on copper surfaces, her pieces draw inspiration from the Aurora Borealis, translating light into layered expressions that feel both luxurious and atmospheric.
From Spain, DEMSKY pushes the boundaries of perception through graffiti-rooted compositions that distort time and space, while Vance DNA of Shanghai reimagines pop culture imagery through his signature Transparent Style, offering a fresh, dimensional take on the familiar.
ZELAM LIM from China adds another layer to the dialogue, exploring the tension between tradition and modernity through a visual language that feels both fluid and introspective.

Urban Energy Meets Abstract Expression
The exhibition also brings together a dynamic group of artists working across urban and abstract forms. Singapore’s Jahan channels rebellious energy into bold visual statements, while Brazil’s Rafael Sliks transforms urban lettering into a sophisticated artistic language.
South Korea’s XEVA expands the expressive potential of spray paint, creating works that radiate with color and movement. On the abstract front, artists such as Kevin Douillez from Belgium, Yomar Augusto, Vincent Langaard from Norway, and Gary Gagliano from the United States offer diverse interpretations of form and emotion. Their works move beyond representation, instead evoking atmosphere, rhythm, and sensation in ways that resist easy definition.
Thai Voices on the Global Stage
Alongside international names, VISION also highlights a new generation of Thai artists gaining recognition beyond the local scene.
Thutchai Changsanoh explores architectural forms through abstraction, translating structure into fluid visual compositions. FIVE brings a retro-futuristic sensibility, reimagining classic automobiles with a contemporary twist, while Pongsatorn
Tipasatien of Mighty One Agency introduces a softer, more emotional dimension through his character Lamoon, capturing moments of tenderness and vulnerability.
Together, these artists anchor the exhibition in a local context while contributing to a broader global narrative.

A Space for Multiple Ways of Seeing
More than a collection of artworks, VISION is an invitation to rethink how we engage with art. It suggests that meaning is not fixed, but shaped by perspective, by the viewer as much as the artist.
In a city where tradition and modernity constantly intersect, the exhibition feels particularly relevant. It offers a space where differences are not only acknowledged, but celebrated, where contrasting ideas can coexist and spark new ways of seeing.
