Korakrit Arunanondchai: Songs for dying (2021)
Duration: approx. 30 mins
The video work, Songs for dying, which was shown during Arunanondhcai's exhibition Songs for Dying earlier this year, is a commissioned work by the 13th Gwangju Biennale in South Korea, the Han Nefkens Foundation in Spain and Kunsthall Trondheim. Through this video work, as well as in installation and paintings, Arunanondchai unites the personal and intimate with the spiritual, the technological, animistic belief systems, politics and the global narrative. In the video, the idea of the ghost is active on several levels: as a presence that disintegrates the linear perception of time by making the past alive and pulsating in the present, as an alternative knowledge system, as an image of invisible structures and as a metaphor for how all things, both bodies and spirits, are interconnected as a community in a greater whole.
