I applied dots after dots by using my paintbrush to create pixel art, a technique that responds to my anxiety and OCD. The repetition sometimes emphasizes clarity while, other times, obscurity. It is so obscure that I am unsure whether such ambiguity is actually our 'image' or 'thought'.

Each moment I have worked on each piece of art heals me mentally. Falling in love with movies and anime has inspired me to be part of my favorite scenes. In these paintings, I can echo my feelings and the things that have affected my thoughts. And, I will never regret doing what I love since not doing it is the only regret there will be. This has always motivated me to move forward. It is similar to what Levi Ackerman from Attack on Titan has said: “No one will be able to tell whether their decision is right or wrong. What comes next, though, will give them the answer. Believe in your decision with no regrets.”

 

In her new exhibition Disorder, Anchalee Arayapongpanit continues to portray memorable scenes from her favorite movies and animations. The artist acts out her favorite roles, from fighting monsters to being in the middle of dangerous and terrifying situations. Therefore, each oil on canvas and linen painting deliberately depicts her imagination and creativity.
