There are the first pot of the pork bone, the second pot of the thick pork bone, and the third pot of the heavy pork bone, and I ordered "the second pot of the thick pork bone".

The noodles can be hardened, normal and soft, but I'm normal.

Nazis•I didn't know the name Utarit until now, but it seems that he is a leading Thai artist who is currently working in Bangkok.

utarit02.JPG

In this solo exhibition, five still life paintings with birds and rabbits motifs are exhibited.

utarit03.JPG

It is like a traditional still life painting of Western painting, and it seems that something like the author's view of life and death is included in it, so I saw the work with calm colors.
