A Study for Art Creation on the Subject "Various Pattern, Diversity of Life”

Abstract

My art creation initiated from my admiration for art since my childhood. My door to the art world was closed at that time due to my obligation to study science as my mother Queen Sirikit had hoped for. With this knowledge, I could help developing the country. After my retirement from duties, I finally gave myself more free time that I have decided to come back to my dearest interest again. Since I have known nothing about conventional art methods, all my art pieces have been created directly from my instinct. My research was conducted on paintings from two artists: the French painter Henri Rousseau and the Japanese female painter Yayoi Kusama with the framework of dream and art creation. In Sigmund Freud’s point of view, an art piece could be interpreted as a process of how dream was transformed into a tangible form. It is found that both painters’ works have revealed how instinctively art could be expressed through forms, spaces, and colors, consequently defined as Naive Art. Inspired by the finding, I have been creating arts which are in some manners resembling these two artists but the context and personal expressions are different. I have expressed my emotions and feelings through forms and spaces that I have felt familiar with. My works aim to forward the dream and loving messages to myself, my family, Thai people and the world
