HISTORICAL FACTS: A city s lifeline - The Untold Story

The uniqueness of street food stalls add a charm to Bangkok, and this is what inspired artist Kiettisak Moungkum to create art when he was an undergraduate student. However, as a graduate student at the Faculty of Painting Sculpture and Graphic Arts, Silpakorn University, he had to do field surveys of street vendors for his thesis and that's when he discovered the negative side of the business. As a result, Kiettisak's solo art exhibition, "Rules", reflects the problems of organising street vendors on pavements and public spaces.
