Thai sculpture on show at Museum Pier
The exhibition The Spirit of Sculptors is on view at Museum Pier until 23 October, bringing together a historic collection of rare works by three Thai sculptors spanning different generations. The show traces the evolution of Thai sculpture, from academic pieces that helped shape the discipline to contemporary installations that push its boundaries.
Visitors can follow a narrative that links the early academic sculptures, the mid‑century innovations of artists such as Sirahib and Vapuyda, and the recent experimental works of Watkparoon. Each artist’s contribution is presented alongside contextual material that highlights their impact on the wider art community and on Thai cultural heritage.
The display also includes previously unseen pieces that have never before been exhibited publicly, offering fresh insight into the techniques and ideas that have driven Thai sculpture forward. Educational programmes, guided tours and interactive stations are available for students and families, making the exhibition both a scholarly resource and an engaging public experience.
