​Witaya Junma
As an artist, I am enthusiastic about applying fresh approaches to my art and also have explored various branches of science in creating my work. Technology and machinery have thus become a significant part of my art. To me, they are products of the observation or imitation of nature. In other words, they are replicas of living things, and their creator is us, humans. The main role of technology and the machine is to make our lives easier, however, if we offer them a place in the art world and give them different roles, from telling stories to amplifying expressions, I believe we can create new art forms. And if we use them wisely, technology and machines can help convey the artist’s objectives more effectively than conventional.
