The artwork features a striking metallic sculpture with a cylindrical, tubular form rising from a dark, solid base. The overall composition creates a sense of balance and simplicity, with the smooth, reflective surface of the metal contrasting sharply against the dark background.

This minimalist sculpture likely reflects the artist's exploration of the fundamental elements of form and space, challenging the viewer's perception and interpretation of the piece. ...
Jedsada Tangtrakulwong works primarily with site-specific installation, bringing together photography, sound, drawing and light to awaken audience perceptions of different spaces. Each body of work develops from extended interactions with particular environments. His 2013 project, Spirit Under The Chi River was based on 21 months of fieldwork covering the fishermen's way of life and the fishing-related culture in twelve villages near the Chi River, Maha Sarakham Province.
