Artist presents a journey into inner worlds at Richard Koh Fine Art

Art lovers are invited to pause, reflect and connect with the unspoken emotional narratives that dwell beneath the surface of the everyday during "In Passing, Within", which is running at Richard Koh Fine Art, until Aug 9. This is a solo exhibition by Kongsak Kampakdee, a Thai painter whose work explores the emotional depth of everyday life through subtle, introspective compositions. His practice transforms ordinary moments, quiet conversations, resting figures and still interiors into visual reflections of memory, presence and internal dialogue. In his latest body of work, he transforms ordinary scenes such as resting alone, engaging in casual conversation or navigating moments of illness into intimate visual reflections. Each work serves as an entry in a visual diary, capturing the subtle moods and inner states that accompany daily routines. Rather than straightforward depictions of life's passing moments, his contemplative paintings delve into the emotional undercurrents that shape our lived experience. Working primarily in oil on canvas, the artist employs a soft, muted colour palette of earth tones, greys and gentle blues to evoke stillness and emotional atmosphere. His figurative scenes are tender and restrained, often capturing moments of vulnerability, solitude or quiet connection. With each work, he invites viewers into a space between observation and remembrance, where personal feeling and passing time quietly converge. Richard Koh Fine Art is on the 9th floor of Peterson Building, Sukhumvit, between soi 26 and 28, and opens Tuesday to Saturday from 11am to 7pm.
