Talk with the writer and artist
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Paradise Thailand is the first collaboration between an independent scholar, Sarinee Achavanuntakul, and a very keen artist, Angkrit Ajchariyasophon.
While Sarinee criticizes her society fervently, Angkrit, after reading those poems, cannot stop his alerted imagination resulting in almost 50 diverse paintings.
Paradise Thailand thus represents the creative force of those two people.
Come and read their illustrated poetry and see whether our country is like what they say.

Paradise Thailand
Self-proclaimed ‘academic’ lies in bed
racks her head on Thailand. Already –
angst and ache yearning to be free;
released from “Sarinee” in verse form.
When “Angkrit” finished his reading, it’s
like finding long-lost source of power.
Brush in hand, he swerves to transfer
in color : all words to canvas.
“Paradise Thailand” – where’s it at?
when we say “now THAT’s Thai,” is it real?
or simply illusions that we feel?
Here’s the deal : please look, read and think.
