スレード美術学校を卒業したウッティン・チャンサタブートは、タイのメディアアーティストです。動画の没入型風景からマルチメディアインスタレーションの領域まで、多様な分野をシームレスに横断しています。彼のプロジェクト「デジタル時代における自己とアイデンティティの変容」はミラノでセレステ賞 (プロジェクト賞部門) を受賞し、2015年唯一のアジア人受賞者となりました。
タイで最も長い歴史を持つ視覚芸術のコンペティション、全国芸術展で金メダルと銀メダルを受賞したチャンサタブートは、現在、チェンマイ大学美術学部の講師として自身の芸術的経験を伝えています。2020年にはシルパコーン大学で視覚芸術の博士号を取得し、ソーシャルネットワーク分野における自己とアイデンティティへの仮想的相互作用の影響を研究しました。
創造的表現の哲学的基礎を深く掘り下げながら、コミュニケーションと言語の複雑な構造の中にある、データセットの流動性と、固有の非永続性に知的焦点を当てています。これらの概念的な要素は大きな影響力を持ち、現実の認識を形成し、視覚的アイデンティティを作り上げ、さまざまな主題における表現を再定義します。
チャンサタブートにとって、「言語」は単なる人間の交流を超え、人間と非人間の領域の間での命令や記号の対話を包含する語彙へと進化しています。この広い視点は、無生物から生物、さらに機械システムに至るまで、すべての存在の根本的な部分で変化を引き起こします。
Graduated from Slade School of Fine Art. Wuttin Chansataboot is a Thai media artist traversing seamlessly through diverse disciplines, ranging from the immersive landscapes of moving image to the realms of multi-media installation. His project, “The Metamorphosis of Self and Identity in the Digital Era,” secured him the Celeste Prize in the Project Prize category in Milan, making him the sole Asian recipient in 2015.
Recipient of gold and silver medals at the National Exhibition of Art, the longest running visual art competition in Thailand, Chansataboot currently imparts his artistic experience as a lecturer at the Faculty of Fine Arts, Chiang Mai University. He earned a Ph.D. in Visual Arts from Silpakorn University in 2020, focusing on the influence of virtual interaction on self and identity in the social network realm.
Delving into the philosophical foundations of creative expression, Chansataboot directs his intellectual focus towards fluidity and the inherent impermanence of datasets within the intricate structures of communication and language. These conceptual elements wield significant influence, shaping perceptions of reality, crafting visual identities, and redefining representations across a spectrum of subjects.
For Chansataboot, ‘language’ transcends mere human interaction, evolving into a lexicon encompassing commands or symbols in dialogues between humanity and the non-human sphere. This expansive perspective, spanning from inanimate objects to living organisms and mechanized systems, prompts transformative shifts at the elemental level of all existences.
