"The work Casting off a Memory contains woven fabric that I made under the mentorship of Mae Pan. The work is a vessel that stores moments of my being and my thoughts during the five weeks I have spent at Rai Boonbandarn. It keeps the memory that will deteriorate and will be disposed off eventually. Nevertheless, the process involved observing and investigating how one adds, subtracts, erases, connects, fills in, looses, changes and takes away. Casting off a Memory also contains experiences shared by artists and all the beings and things in the farm. The activities we did collectively or on own has created a kind of interconnectedness that is woven together by the moments we shared during the time of the residency."
