Nara & Brux / A-Z Project - Temporary Art Museum Soi Sabai 11 - 17 Feb, 2006

When Brux was in K.3 (year 2006), he had a big chance to be part of Nara's - A to Z Project .

Yoshitomo Nara is a contemporary Japanese Pop artist who did a lot of children books. He was traveled to many countries and displayed his works in museums/galleries that he visited. And Thailand was part of this project as well. This project was about the "Lonesome Dog", the big white dog that now stays forever in Phuket, Thailand which was to remind us about Tzunami that hit the southern part of Thailand.

I was so grateful that a good friend of mine, Teacher Noi @ RAJATA Art House had bought Brux into this project. His work was to do a dog (paper mache'), of course, with a lot of help from teacher Noi & teacher Ruck. And Brux's dog was displayed @ Silpakorn University for the exhibition and for the dog house was made from Silpakorn undergrad. Finally, Brux's dog had flown back to Tokyo, Japan since then.

I don't really think Brux can remember much about this..... but I do definitely!
