Artist in residency

This is an annual workshop and festival that started in 2005. It involves more than 100 artists each year, including national and international artists. The workshop festival will take place for 1-2 weeks in Thailand, Vietnam, and Korea. The purpose of the workshop is to bring together artists from 24 countries, along with Fine Art Students from University and Professors from various international universities such as United Kingdom, France, Sweden, the United States, China, Japan, Korea, Myanmar, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Singapore, and Sri Lanka. The goal is to encourage dialogue, discussion, and observation of each other's artistic process. In total, there will be more than 150 artists at the workshop. Pimpisa Tinpalit, the curator, has organized and participated in the International Art Workshop at Poh Chang Academy of Art for the past 10 years. She has taken Australian artists with her to experience and establish connections with other artists and universities in Southeast Asia.

This program promotes cultural exchange through workshops, activities, discussions, collaborations, and demonstrations. Participants engage with different perspectives, traditions, and rich heritage, fostering understanding, appreciation, diversity, and empathy.

Australian artists are collaborating with Thai and international artists at a workshop to create artwork in various mediums such as painting, photography, mixed media, performance art, and sculpture.

Australian artists will work with 2 to 5 Thai students. This exchange helps Thai students understand Australian artists' influences, experiences, skills, and creative processes. They will collaborate during the workshop.

Students from Poh Chang University have the chance to experience cross-cultural and creative exchange. Additionally, universities from across Thailand also attend and observe the Australian Artists' process, giving them the opportunity to interact with the Artists.. 

Australian artists collaborate with Thai artists, professors, and lecturers, observing and experiencing their creative methods across various mediums. This inspiring environment sparks the exchange of visual ideas as they observe one another's artistic processes.

This event is a great chance for Australian artists to learn, exchange ideas, and experience Thai culture alongside Thai artists. It's also an opportunity for Australian artists to share their knowledge and learn about the Australian culture.
