Belgium-based artist Mike Latona brings his mapping structure to Bangkok through a digital art exhibition “Life of Patterns” showing in the lobby of the at Siam @ Siam Design Hotel until Monday (May 15).
A visual artist with a graphic design background who is rooted in street art, Latona came to visual mapping 10 years ago and found there the ideal union of all his fields of actions His exhibitions and collaborations with world-class companies like Huawei, Dreamworks and BMW have taken him across Europe and in 2013, he joined the Geneva Mapping Festival team to develop design scenarios and curate some of the activities and workshops. He also created the BAM Festival in Liege, Belgium and contributed to the realisation of “MapMap”, an open video mapping software program.
The Bangkok exhibition’s mapping structure consists of hundreds of triangular modules creating a pentagon with many of the patterns inspired by Thai textiles.
The exhibition is open daily from 9am to 9pm. Find out more at Facebook.com/siamatsiambangkok.
