Born in 1986 lives and works in Bangkok, Thailand.
Phornphop Sittiruk is a conceptual artist. Sittiruk creates sculptures and installations that require craftsmanship. His studio is staffed with a team of people who assist in producing works. The artist chose objects and materials in his daily life primarily with consideration of their original meanings to then add on meaning. Hence Sittiruk’s works have been largely influenced by his own experiences. His works have been shown at the VT Art Salon in Taipei/Taiwan, WTF Gallery, Bridge Art Space, 1PROJECTS, and Gallery VER in Bangkok/Thailand. Sittiruk had his first solo show in Kuala Lumpur/Malaysia by Numthong Art Space in collaboration with A+ Works of Art in 2019. His works were shown at Art SG 2023 by 1PROJECTS at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, and Art Jakarta 2023 by A+ Works of Art. He participated in the Bangkok Biennale 2018 and held an artist residency in Gwangju South Korea. Sittiruk holds a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from Silpakorn University, Bangkok, Thailand.
