 �้านแห่งจิตวิญญาณ\nThis series of work
  on paper all offer a “farang” view of the charming spirit houses 
 (ศาลพระภูมิ) I have seen across S.E. Asia.\nAs a f
 oreigner I understand very little about the rituals connected to the s
 pirit houses but I do adore the various forms of\nmini shrines to be f
 ound around Bangkok, from the sturdy intricate golden ones to the crum
 bling old wooden folk-art houses\ntucked away in the trunks of ancient
  trees.\nThis idea of having unseen guardians living within places or 
 things is an effective way of explaining complicated or unknown\npheno
 menon. It is a device to make sense of chaos, a way of trying to contr
 ol events and a popular way to interact with the\nworld that is still 
 used today in all forms of religion.\nDrawings are small spaces and of
 ten there is space created within the space due to the illusion of per
 spective and the way\npeople “read” artwork. These landscapes are 
 gleaned from years of mark making and the large mental library of loca
 tions I\nhave physically travelled through so I build or sew a spirit 
 house inside each two dimensional space/landscape as a gift to\nall th
 ose invisible spirits that may live in these abstract landscapes I hav
 e created. If spirits do exist perhaps they exist inside\ndrawings as 
 well?\n-Stephen Eastaugh.\nArtist Stephen Eastaugh was born in Melbour
 ne, Australia in 1960 and, explicably, has two fathers. Both were sail
 ors and\n– both – were either the cause or inspiration for Eastaug
 h’s self-diagnosed disease: an unremitting, uncontrollable and\nincu
 rable need to travel.\nFor the past thirty years he has been traveling
  and creating art in 90 very different countries across all continents
 . Eastaugh\nis probably the most well traveled Australian artist alive
  and has had the honour to be the first contemporary artist to winter\
 nover in Antarctica in 2009 c/o the Australian Antarctic Division’s 
 Art Fellowship. Since 1982 he has held over 90 solo\nexhibitions and b
 een involved in 150 group exhibitions in a dozen countries. Eastaughs 
 work can be found in the National\nGallery of Australia, National Gall
 ery of Victoria, Art Gallery of West Australia, Museum of Modern Art -
  Heide Victoria,\nMuseum of Contemporary Art Sydney, Parliament House 
 Canberra, Nevada Museum of Art USA and numerous private\ncollections a
 round the world. He currently moves between Australia, Argentina and..
 ..elsewhere.\n\nFor more information visit http://www.portfolios.net/e
