From worthless objects in piles of trash, six artists have revived these mental-value objects by creating their unique style of art which represents as another our history of recycling.

Color Communication
By Philip Marc Adomat
5 September - 11 October 2013
People's Gallery P1 - P3, 2nd floor artHUB@bacc

"Color communication" is an absorption of Thai culture and street art style with an abstract expressionism base. All paintings for this show are the most pure version of communication through the artists' own language. Use of colors, street art techniques and influences from abstract expressionism and pop art make the artists' paintings look denser and more multidimensional. Colorful, vibrant and energetic forms express the paintings movement toward a new dimension of happiness.
