This exhibition honors the literary legacy of Kularb Saipradith, widely known by his pen name, Sriburapha — a distinguished Thai novelist, journalist, and human rights advocate. The Thai title of the exhibition, ข้าพเจ้าได้เห็นมา (The World I Have Seen), named after one of his books written in 1951, reflects Sriburapha's wisdom about the society and the world.

The World of Sriburapha's Novels is organized into two key sections, each focusing on pivotal phases of his life. The first section covers his early years, including his growth as a writer and editor, while the second explores the evolution of his views following his time abroad in Australia. Throughout the exhibition, selected quotes from Sriburapha's novels and other writings are presented chronologically on twenty-eight canvas panels. Each quote is accompanied by a description of the life event occurring around the time it was written, inviting the audience to delve into Sriburapha's literary world and offering insight into his views on life and the influences that shaped his thinking.

Visit to the Sriburapha House Museum:
Our studio highly values the experience of working on this project. We are grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with Sriburapha scholars and archivists to research and gather archival copies and photographs of artifacts with significant historical value for the exhibition. Visiting the Sriburapha House Museum in Soi Pranang deepened our understanding of his impact on Thai literature and society, enriching our approach to honoring his legacy.
