After living and working in New York City for two years. Ruthorn moved back to his hometown and currently based in Bangkok. His works have been featured in multiple shows in several counties such as Thailand, USA, China, and Korea.
Ruthorn’s current work is about questioning how people feel and react when they realize that they lost unremarkable thing. Engaging with ideas of daily routine, fulltime working, and capitalism,
Ruthorn sets about building novel and unusual perspective of unmemorable place that you walk pass every day. Creating ‘ghost’ that representing you small memories left behind that place looking for you though your own past.
"I am interested in the common surrounding. the site that has nothing more than just a passage. For me, this place is living in a different time flow. When we move this place seems to stand still. Until the day they just disappear, that moment will be us who stop. Wondering about our memories with this place and realize that it has very small memories left."

the idea that painting can complete in itself.
Describe your creative process.
I get up in the morning, then go to my studio, working 6-7 hours per day. I think my painting process is quite systematic, and I don’t want to lose control when I paint.
