Kittima Chareeprasit received her MA in Curating and Collections from Chelsea College of Arts. Her interest lies in contemporary art and culture which revolve around critical history, social and political issues, and has been vocal against attempts to suppress those who use art as a form of political expression. In 2016, she co-founded Waiting You Curator Lab, an experimental curatorial workshop and artists’ book publishing house. She also offers seminars in visual art, art management and museology at Chiang Mai University. Despite all difficulties caused by the Covid pandemic, she is proud to have continued working with art institutions across Asia and Europe to bring excellent art programmes to Thai audiences. Her latest project at MAIIAM, called “The Hunters” draws themes from the volcanic activity of Mount Merapi, Yogyakarta, and the increasing numbers of dams of the lower Mekong, a timely reminder of how Covid could be seen as a form of Earth’s retaliation against man’s exploitation of its resources. Apart from contemporary art, looking for undiscovered restaurants is her passion.
