Photo Phnom Penh 2015 :

Preview

Both « lost in paradise » and « paradise lost », the series of photographs by Lek Kiatsirikajorn explores the current situation of the city of Bangkok and the lives of some of its inhabitants. Coming to the city from the countryside, attracted by the city lights, workers are confronted with the verticality and the never-ending construction in the urban space.  They  isolate themselves in lost left over green plots lost in the city, they are alone. However, thanks to the finesse of colors and by installing an immobile time, all is calm, no sadness, just a disillusioned feeling. This beautiful reflection on accelerated urbanization, – which we know all over the world and especially in Asia – raises the question of the individual’s place inside the city. Nature has not disappeared, but regains some ground in the small spaces that are not yet occupied and human being ask themselves about the world they build and their future.
