From Discarded to Remembered – STRATUM Opens at The Charoen AArt

By GlobeNewswire Published on June 10, 2025, 00:29 IST Bangkok, Thailand, June 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Charoen AArt, in collaboration with Artsy, proudly presents STRATUM, a solo exhibition by Ukrainian artist Illya Skubak. This marks his first solo exhibition in Bangkok and will open on 15 June 2025 at the gallery on Charoen Krung Road in the Bang Kho Laem district of Bangkok. Illya Skubak, Untitled, 2025. Mixed media sculpture with tyres, mannequin limbs, mirror, bow, and arrows. From the exhibition STRATUM at The Charoen AArt, Bangkok. STRATUM is an exploration of the emotional, physical, and cultural strata of contemporary life through ordinary objects that are often left unnoticed. Skubak collects materials from his surroundings in Bangkok, including tyres, helmets, mannequins, bamboo, and metal scraps. He assembles them into sculptural works that speak to transformation, presence, and memory hidden within the everyday. Each piece avoids fixed explanation and leaves space for viewers to form their own interpretations 'I don't offer answers,' says Skubak. 'The work only begins to live when someone connects with it in their own way.' Born in 1999 in Okhtyrka, Ukraine, Skubak began his artistic journey as a teenager. He works with materials shaped by use and time, creating artworks that reflect place and change. Now based in Bangkok, he continues to create from what surrounds him, using objects that carry quiet stories and traces of life. The exhibition also features pieces from STONE – Artifacts of the Future Past , a series of hand-engraved volcanic stones. Each stone includes an engraved image, a short poetic reflection, and a unique NFT. 'Stone is the first blockchain,' Skubak writes. 'It preserves without revision.' These works create a conversation between permanence and impermanence, linking memory, material, and technology. 'STRATUM shows how art can give meaning to the everyday,' says Bryce Watanasoponwong, founder of The Charoen AArt. 'It invites us to pause, look more closely, and discover beauty in what we often overlook.' EXHIBITION DETAILS Venue: The Charoen AArt, Charoen Krung Road, Bangkok, ThailandOpening Reception: 15.06.2025Duration: 15.06 – 17.08.2025 More info: About the Artist: Illya Skubak (b. 1999, Ukraine) is a self-taught artist whose work spans sculpture, assemblage, and installation. His practice reflects the urgency of survival and the poetry of broken things.

Rod Stewart cancels concerts amid ongoing illness

Rod Stewart cancels concerts amid ongoing illness Show Caption Hide Caption Sir Rod Stewart was 'flabbergasted' by emotional AMAs surprise Sir Rod Stewart was honoured with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the AMAs, but he had no clue there was another surprise planned. Bang Showbiz Sir Rod Stewart is apologizing to fans after canceling several shows as he recovers from the flu. The rocker, 80, axed four tour dates and rescheduled two more, cutting down on an ongoing Las Vegas residency as he works his way back to good health. "I have to cancel and reschedule my next six concerts in June as I continue to recover from the flu," Stewart wrote in a post to his Instagram on June 6. "So sorry my friends. I'm devastated and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience to my fans. I'll be back on stage and will see you soon." Rod Stewart, back to tour the US, talks greatest hits, Jeff Beck and Ukrainian refugees The canceled shows include four running from June 7-10 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, part of his second residency in Sin City, and one on June 14 on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe. Two shows in California, on June 12 and 15, were rescheduled to late September. The spate of cancellations follows a notable onstage absence for the musician beginning in June. On the first of the month, Stewart canceled a Las Vegas show day of, saying he was feeling "unwell," and rescheduled the performance for June 10, which is among the dates he just bowed out of. Then on June 4, he axed his Vegas performance for June 5, citing an advisory from his doctor. The string of missed shows has begun to raise questions about the rocker's health for an upcoming performance at the Glastonbury music festival later this month. He is scheduled to be one of the oldest acts to ever take the legendary U.K. stage. In May, Stewart performed at the American Music Awards, treating fans to a rendition of "Forever Young" after receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award. Stewart also has several shows set for the summer as part of his One Last Time Tour, which crisscrosses the country from June through August. Part of a generation of rockers who have extended their greatest hits through ambitious tours well into their 70s and 80s, Stewart is not alone in suspending some of his performances. Joining the ranks with stars like Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel, his absence, while disappointing to fans and ticketholders, may now appear more run-of-the-mill as aging acts take a beat to address health issues before returning to the stage.
