Timeline

2019

A story of Kra-Tua Taeng Seua is about a villager name Bongton. He was a hunter. Every day he and his sons would go into the forest to hunt animal. His wife would went along with them, carrying with her a basket to collect wild fruits and vegetables. One day, while they were on their way in the forest, they encountered a tiger. The tiger tried to snatch the basket from the wife so Bongton fought with the tiger to protect her. At last, the tiger was killed. The performance was as simple as other folk plays yet the degree of fun was heighten by performers’ acrobatic action, amusing movement of dance and lively sound of traditional percussion played in accordance with verses, narrating the details of the story. The performance would take place on the playground while the viewers sit around to enjoy the show.

A TALEBEARER’S TALE : The Last Deer - Tang Contemporary Art Bangkok- 2017

This solo exhibition, “A Talebearer’s Tale: The Last Deer,” serves as an extension of Monument of an Awakening Era, the work that Sakarin Krue-On showed at the 2012 Busan Biennale. The key work in this exhibition, A Talebearer’s Tale, also begins with the story of the Schomburgk’s deer. When we walk into the exhibition space, a classic desk sits in the middle, bearing the lifelike head of a Schomburgk’s deer. On a nearby wall hangs a Thai folk painting from the twentieth century; a video plays on the other side of the hall, showing the artist interviewing people on the street about the legend of the Schomburgk’s deer. The exhibition also contains a rich array of historical documents, and the overall layout of the show is reminiscent of a display in a natural history museum.

Through this exhibition, Sakarin Krue-On attempts to present his thoughts after encountering the world’s only Schomburgk’s deer specimen at the National Museum of Natural History in Paris. The Schomburgk’s deer, a species unique to Thailand, is now extinct. In the forests of Kanchanaburi Province in 1932, the last Schomburgk’s deer fell to a hunter’s gun. In Samut Sakhon in 1938, a drunkard beat the last recorded Schomburgk’s deer to death at a local temple. When the artist discovered this unique Schomburgk’s deer specimen in Paris, he finally realized that the legendary, beautiful animal that he had heard about since childhood actually once existed.

“A Talebearer’s Tale: The Last Deer” conveys the tragedy of the extinction of this beautiful, legendary species, but the show also explores the greed in human nature, and the irreversible impact people have had on the world and later generations due to a lack of moral restraint and reverence. The artist hopes that viewers will, through the story and extinction of the Schomburgk’s deer, consider Thailand’s social transformation, and the country’s distinctive cultural identity, values, and traditions as it attempts to find balance between the past and the future amidst globalization and economic and social development.

2018

This will be done through agriculture activity, a tradition born from primitive time, a tool to test the co-operation of people. This project will enlist help of the people of Kassel, both locals and foreigners. It is hoped that by working together to create these fields, the idea of ‘self’ and the division of labour in modern society will be put to question. The study of this simple yet effective farming method will also prove that the contemporary social system we live in is not the only way. A system such as farming may look so primitive and disconnected from daily life in Europe that it seems like a romantic notion, but in actual fact farming still continue to be a source of sustenance in countries all over the world.

In Tang Contemporary Art, for the sub-element of “Re-production”, an installation of ‘miniature’ paintings will be exhibited. Inspired by Thai ancient mural paintings, Krue-on has paid particular attention to the communal activities found in selected murals and ‘re-produce’ them in a series of 12 tempera-based works. Instead of focusing on the big narratives in religious spirituality usually preached in the large compositions of Thai mural paintings, as most are derived from the scriptures of Buddhism, the artist pays more attention to the daily activities of communal living, denouncing the preconception that the idea of the unity between community, labour and sharing represented an anachronistic and dying culture. Instead, he sees this unity as a vibrant, resurgent force to counteract with today's ever-increasing ideology-capitalism.

The second room displayed video footage of real puppies in feeding from their mother. The work was installed again in 2012 as part of exhibition " Panorama: Recent Art from Contemporary Asia" at Singapore Art Museum, Singapore. In 2013 the work was brought to Hong Kong Art Basel by 100Tonson gallery and was well received as one of the selected high-light.

"...The show - 120 artists from the Congo to Australia - takes an outsider's view of the commercial art world. To keep an element of surprise, Documenta does not reveal the list of artists until the final hour. Among the known participants is Sakarin Krue-On from Thailand, who is creating a Southeast Asian terraced rice field on a hillside outside an 18th-century palace as a large-scale earth-art culture clash..."

Busan Biennale, 2012 "MONUMENT OF AWAKENING ERA"

Sakarin was invited to participate in Busan Biennale 2012 "Garden of Learning" with a large installation "MONUMENT OF AWAKENING ERA" which dozens of forcelain antlers were installed in a large space of the exhibition venue, just as described in the exhibition catalogue " In a huge, dark gallery, white antlers – a whole flock of them – emanate from a blackish liquid covering the entire floor. The artist calls his worka "monument", but what it is meant to commemorate? The antlers are made of porcelain; they are both fragile and precious. Their image, mirrored in the blackish liquid, only adds to their immaterial, almost ghost-like appearance. This looks more like a landscape of doom, even a graveyard than a monument, and yet this piece holds the secret to an extraordinary beauty.The apparitional look of the antlers forms an afterimage, rendered in three dimensions, of a species that has been extinct since the late 1930s: Schomburgk's Deer. A swamp deer that once roamed the central plains of Thailand (the artist's home country), its antler was characterized by a flat, bushy look. Sakarin Krue-On was once greeted by such an animal at the National Museum of Natural History in Paris. He somehow felt drawn to the grace the animal betrayed, even as a padded thing, and a connection between past and present was made (this is, after all, what museums are for). The artist then learned that, much like today's desperate masses of people, the deer had to flee the often flooded plains of Thailand. The animal was forced to move uphill in search of food, leaving it vulnerably exposed to predators. Schomburgk's Deer came to realize much too late that the creatures following him were not fellow deer, but humans – hunters wearing antlers for better range and rifle accuracy.The flooded plains, the people, the deer – all of these are present and connected in the Monument. And yet, given the history of the animal's extinction, do we have to attribute the porcelain antler to the deer, or could it be the human – the hunter in disguise? Indeed, what is being commemorated here might not be Schomburgk's Deer, but a human intelligence that facilitates not only the destruction of the world's riches, but also and ultimately itself" Garden of learning /Busan Biennale catalogue/ 2012/ p. 89-92

2010

An installation of short silent film and art objects showed at 100Tonson Gallery in Bangkok in 2010. The film which was in the artist's specific art project "Two men look out through the same bars . One sees the mud and one sees the stars", inspired by the folktale reciting a melancholic love story between a mythical maiden and a king of a typical kingdom. The story was told through the practice of silent film with humorous and sarcastic manner. The film was also exhibit as part of exhibition 'Thresholds' at Sandaram Tagore Gallery in New York in the project by the curator Gregory Galligan in 2013.

In addition to the award, Niru Ratnam, Director of Prudential Eye Programme citing his work as "Whilst other successful Asian artists have sited their practice within a global language of contemporary practice, Krue-On continues to work through nuances specific to Asian cultural identity.

2007

"Temple" was the first solo work by Krue-On, exhibited in a café and gallery, About Art Related Activities (AARA) in Bangkok. In this work, he transformed three different rooms of the gallery area into spaces for meditation, drawing influences from traditional Thai mural painting. The stencils took the forms of traditional Thai (not Buddhist) deities. The designs on the walls were created to fade over time, slowly becoming invisible. The work coincided with an economic crisis in Thailand. The artist created a similar installation, "Nang Fa (Angel)" in 2007 for the Neue Gallerie in Kassel, Germany. The work also contemporarily showed in other famous art galleries, such as in exhibition "Murals" at Fundacio Joan Miró in Barcelona, Spain in 2010 and at Pearl Lam Gallery in Shanghai, China in 2016.

"Terraced Rice Field" was created for Documenta 12 outside of the Schloss Wilhelmshöhe museum building. With the help of local volunteers, Krue-On created a functioning terraced rice field on the side of the nearby hill. According to the 'Europe Grand Tour of Contemporary Art' an article by Julia Chaplin in on May 28, 2007 New York Times the 'Terraced Rice Field Art Project' was written about as following

2007 was a time when rice planting was not a popular subject and popular activity to be shown in various occasion as in nowaday. Sakarin came up with the idea of applying the terrace for rice plantation on the hillside at Schloss Wilhelmshöhe in Kassel at the first time he went to the city to survey the sites.
