Death by Conscience



People Space would like to invite you all
to explore your thoughts and mind in our new exhibition

Death by Conscience
These dolls are not a representation of human beings.
They are a representation of all that’s killed by conscience.
They are desires shackled within the deepest reaches of the human heart.
They are thoughts and impulses deemed criminal or inappropriate to society.
Before they are given a chance to breathe, they are executed.
Killed by ourselves; murdered by conscience.
Death before Birth.


Through almost 100 ceramic dolls, Chananun Chotrungroj will take us to the other world - the world of (dead) thoughts. Our artist also invites her friend, Kirsten Tan, a young-blood filmmaker from Singapore to share this experience through her video art.


Chananun Chotrungroj graduated from the Department of Mass Communication, Faculty of Humanities, Chiang Mai University. Since then she worked as photographer for OPEN Magazine for several years before taking off to Korea in 2005 to participate in the Asian Artist Fellowship Program. After a year in Korea, she headed back to Bangkok where she now lives and continues to photograph joyfully. Death by Conscience is the last work before she leaves to further her study in the US.
