James Gallego Olivo is visiting Bangkok via Lab X, a pilot artistic residency and cultural exchange between Thailand and the UK, supported by the British Council’s Connections Through Culture program.
Artsadmin and Creative Migration, have co-designed this nine-month artist development program, to confront the profound challenges faced by artists and producers working internationally. This micro-residency is designed to provide artists with time, space and money to develop their practice, without expectation of delivery, and it is an opportunity for artists and producers across locality to engage in mentorship, artistic dialogues and cross-sector support.
Artsadmin will host Thai-based artist and activist Nawarat "Nammon" Welployngam and Community-Based Artist-Activist and Art Director Tharinee "Palm" Ratanasatien for two weeks in October 2024.
