I spent the summer of '22 with my grandparents in their small village in Thailand. They live far out in the countryside in the Isaan region, which is located in central to northeastern Thailand. This area is heavily influenced by agriculture, and there are many small villages where people grow everything from rice to fruit and vegetables.
The day I painted this motif, I sat with my grandparents all day. They spend most of the day in the “living room”. The “living room” is an area outside under our now old wooden house (where my aunt, uncle and cousin’s daughter live). There are two low wooden tables, one of them with a blanket on it. My grandparents sit on top of the table. The table is a focal point for the family, and all meals are eaten here. From the table you can have conversations with, among other things, people in the “kitchen” and all the way to the neighbors. This is because it is not actually a living room, but an outdoor area. The floor is just compacted earth, the walls are banana trees or some rusty metal, which, among other things, frames the kitchen. In addition to two tables, there are also a couple of hammocks, my grandfather’s unlocked motorcycle, and livestock in the form of cattle/buffaloes for sale and free-range chickens and turkeys. A clear view of neighbors and all the life that goes on on the road.
The motif is inspired by this very place and my grandparents' essentials. Along the way, they helped come up with ideas for what to include in the motif. Grandpa's input was his classic combo of beer and an energy drink, which he mixes with ice cubes. In addition, while eating one of his favorite fruits; durian, he insisted that this fruit should definitely be included as well. Grandma's addition was powder, which she uses every day together with a cream that you apply to mosquito bites or sore spots, among other things.
I remember they thought it was fun to see the place they spend most of the day in a different perspective.
Falang Noi
Falang Noi – something I have often been called throughout my childhood. Briefly translated from Thai, it means “The little stranger”. And is something I have often felt like, both in Denmark, where I was born, and in Thailand, where my mother comes from.
When I was younger, I had difficulty making sense of two very different cultures, and saw it more as a disadvantage than an advantage.
However, as I have grown older and gained a deeper understanding of where I come from – and especially my roots in Thailand, my view has changed. Now most of my inspiration comes from a combination of exactly this, the best of both worlds.
I try to show this double meaning of “something strange” through my works. Here I mix the colors and many impressions of Thailand with the minimalism and city life of Denmark. These contrasts lead to works that are not perfect, but tell good stories
