Drift, 2021 Mixed Media Acrylic on Canvas

In an attempt to tie Kessakorn's juxtaposing Thai and Alaskan culture together, this piece investigates the impacts of climate warming extending from the Arctic down to the coasts of Thailand.

As sea ice melts, polar bears and various Arctic animals are losing their habitats, requiring them to travel further distances to survive. The melting ice continues to raise sea levels, endangering coastal communities all over the globe including Bangkok. Polar bears signify perseverance; with the water representing cleansing, transformation, and renewal.

Within this work, all ice has melted from the Arctic, forcing Nanook to venture out in search of a new life. The waters have led him to the beaches of Thailand with the rising sea. Despite the challenges, he holds onto his strength and moves forward, ready to adapt, while remembering and honoring his past.
