My Shaman is my Therapist

Installation view, National Gallery, Bangkok

My Shaman is my Therapist is a series of films, artworks and video installations that document and research the complex mechanisms and relationships between us and our belief systems in everyday modern life.

Chapter I: Thailand

Thailand’s complex spiritual landscape incorporates elements from Buddhism to Animism, Hinduism, Daoism, Brahmanism, fortune telling and a myriad of other practices. Within this pantheon of spiritual possibilities, people create their own modular, individual experience to fit their needs.

This provides the framework for evolving practices that morph with new technologies and shifting culture, where rituals and symbols take on new meaning.
