One of Thailand’s young generation artists, Prang explores personal concepts of joy, escape and perspective through the surreal eyes of the feline.

“I Wonder a Wonderland” takes viewers to another dimension, one filled with sweetness, imagination and possibilities. The artist explains the subject of her paintings is inspired by the cat’s nature and personality, one that complements her own. Through this series of works, the artist draws attention to the obscurity of daily objects.

With inspiration and simplicity, the artist invites everyone to view their daily lives with the same wonder and regard.
