" It’s the midday so the heat is extremely cruel. As I was stuck in the middle of the road because of the famous traffic jam of Bangkok, I found out that the heat wasn’t that cruel like in ten minutes before. So I look up through the window of the car that I was in and see the giant shade over my car and several cars in that area. The first thought that rush into my mind was this shade must belong to the really big tree but after I notice more about the giant thing upon my head it turns to be the station of skytrain that provide me the shade just like trees usually do. But if it’s tree, it must be really gigantic one and it’s also capable to take us to many different place, since we can go to different place by this concrete enormous tree then we must be able to learn many things from it too. It stands tall, high and huge and connects to many place, gather many knowledge just like the Yggdrasil, the legendary tree."
In case you want to know, Yggdrasil is the legendary tree from Norse Mythology. It's the giant that connects 3 worlds of heaven, human world and hell, together and it also the places where knowledge from 3 worlds is gather there.
So I started to work with photo manipulation technique and create artworks of the merging between skytrain station and tree.
These are first 2 images that I created. People in my class quite like these images but for me, I don't really like it that much because I think it looks too much like some post card so I created a new one.
I quite like this image. It likes it is saying to the audience "Welcome to Hell" which I really like it because it's not just some picture of some beautiful view and nice perspective that will be a good post card for souvenir but it is an image that will be able to speak to the audience too.
