Alisa Chunchue

Lives and works in Bangkok, Thailand | Born 1991
Alisa Chunchue investigates the physical and mental states, questioning what it means to be human, and what drives us to perceive existence. She looks into how human bodies are intertwined in today's society, with multi-layered interconnectedness. Chunchue works across mediums and disciplines in a series of large-scale projects, comprising sculpture, installation, drawing, performance, and recently, videography. Wound, her latest series of meditative drawing procedures inspired by autopsy wounds on human cadavers at the Condon Anatomical Museum in Bangkok, has been awarded the ARTJOG Young Artist Awards (2024), The Vogue Hong Kong Women’s Art Prize in The Sovereign Asian Art Prize (2023), and the Prince Claus Seed Awards (2022).

Chunchue has participated in group exhibition such as ARTJOG : Ramalan, Jogja National Museum, Yogyakarta, Indonesia (2024); The 2023 Sovereign Asian Art Prize Finalists Exhibition, H Queen, Hong Kong (2023); and Illuminated Curiosities, the Nguyen Art Foundation, Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam (2022).
