KRAFTWERK 'MULTIMEDIA TOUR 2026' IN BANGKOK

"Ballerina’s Sin" is a solo exhibition by Amornrat Jenpanich, presented from March 7 to 29, 2026, at Gallery/Warehouse 30. The exhibition examines how surfaces carry physical and emotional histories through time.

The artist’s process involves deliberate acts of alteration—scratching, soaking, folding, stitching, and burning—that destabilize materials before reassembling them into new forms. Fire serves as both tool and collaborator, producing scars and absences that record moments of force, chance, and transformation.

These interventions give rise to abstract forms that echo inner landscapes and psychological symmetry, existing between control and collapse. Rather than aiming for resolution or polish, the works embrace fragmentation, decay, and imperfection as sites of meaning.

The exhibition is open Tuesday to Sunday, with an opening reception on March 7 from 4 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
