Shoes Face

Never come close to see what your shoes face might be.

Never know who actually put on that shoes, never meet your

 true reflection.

There might be a solution...

Whose shadow

Your face in your shoes.

Recognition of one shadow may lead to constructive dimension of self.

Sun Sun Sun!

I recently working on something between daylights and the ground, to actually see that my feet still standing on stiff surface. Sunday was very sunny so I took my fingers for a walk.

The obvious is not to be identified.

Power of Transformation

I read an essay today from Showstudio.com written by Indigo Clarke

and I think it's great to share here.

A thought that has often occurred to me over the years, ever since I first realised my love of fashion as a crazed tutu-and-novelty-John-Lennon-spectacles-loving child and more acutely as a teenager, is the way we use fashion to escape reality or immerse ourselves in it, and to conceal/camouflage our bodies, or reveal them.

Clothing has always had such an effect on me because of its power to transform not just how I look, but how I feel. I’ve often said that in the same way a beautiful, artfully designed and sun-filled space can positively affect our mood, so can the clothing we wear. People talk about the frivolous nature of fashion, and when it’s compared with other art forms, it’s generally considered unimportant. I don’t love the whole ‘status’ thing about fashion, and definitely don’t care about labels – I love what I love, be it a vintage piece, a designer dress or something I knocked up on the sewing machine. I don’t think fashion is important because it’s an industry with a lot of influence and money behind it, but I do think it’s important because it is the art and architecture we wear, the armour that can make us feel brave and empowered, like the person we want to be.

As a teen, I loved to wear my hair cropped super-short and brightly coloured, piercings, little dresses, doc boots and flea-market finds under five dollars – a pretty good escape from the body-con beach and bikini reality that is living in Sydney by the ocean. As I’ve gotten older, the desire to immerse myself in my own little world of music, art and crazy fashion dissipated as the realities of life, work, rent set in…. And while personal style might change its course and become more understated with maturity, fashion never loses its ability to transform. On a bad day to be able to entirely change your mood and outlook, to put something on that you feel transforms your body, and in so doing, your mind, is a powerful – and important – thing.

Identity Under Your Footstep!

I like this website that I just found Style Like U

I believe the same way they're trying to do, every individual story is a wonderful transition of life, it's inspiring and should be told.

Unfinished Project.

Artefact: Functions of Clothes from Dounglerthai on Vimeo.

This alluring concept of identity and clothes got me into making video. It is my project artefact that need constructive feedback to develop more and more.

This video was made intentionally for educational purpose, as an artefact to test the idea of my project.It is very low budget, homemade clip that seriously focus on testing the idea not the aesthetic point of view. 

This video installation demonstrates the idea of the act of gazing and connection between viewers’ perceptions and clothed bodies. It allows viewers to question the construction of our bodies which are fabricated by clothes. Since clothes create at least half the look of any person at any moment, our visual perceptions of the body shaped by the way we live through clothed body. We prepare our bodies for the public display and present ourselves in quite intentional ways. In this sense, bodies’ images form the basic understanding of selfhoods. Our identities are shaped both by our physical performances and how others perceive us in public arena. You look at others while you are being looked. Clothes are the visible body. Our identities are manifested through a visual language. They are a dialogue of society. They signify our identities in the eyes of others, and, at the same time, signify our perceptions of our identities. 

In order to test this artefect, I'd like to get comment and feedback after you watch this video, this would help me improve and develop the concept further. 

LEAVE ME COMMENT ON THIS:

How do you feel after you watch it?

What kind of message came across from watching this video?

Can this change your perception about clothes, body and personal identity?

Life is like ice cream, One lick at a time.

Confidential Recipe!

Serving a dish is not that difficult but cooking and serving an extraordinary delicious dish is not that easy.


I promised to tell you more about my investigation progress. I am now at this risky point where I've found all of my recipe's ingredients, obviously the good kinds. I just need to figure out how to deal with it, how am I going to cook it, how I want it to taste,smell, should I add colors or spices, what kind of seasoning I prefer. There are several  important factors I need to take in consideration. But most of the thing is that how can I make people like it, love the taste of it. I need to make them feel this special long lasting flavor that melting in their mouth once they taste my recipe. Most important thing make them talk about it afterward.


This is just a appetizing metaphor. Don't get me wrong but who can resist good food?

Captured human bodies transformation and beauty of interdependent creatures as a state of art. 

Optimism As Cultural Rebellion

I admired his technique that captured ritual of our bodies and it show a connection between human being and the society, not the earth but the world we chose to live in.


“Optimism is the Vital Force that Entangles itself with and then Shapes the Future.” - Matthew Stone


Churning bodies dissect rhythmic windows that open onto varied states of concentrated being. A collage of  limbs and interconnected consciousness, involving and depicting transcendental states, meditations and ecstatic dance, spin into contemporary motion. The body is shown and used to free the viewer from their own. Stone’s work revolves specifically around creative interactions and community, based on the idea that individual autonomy can be successfully combined with the power of collectivity.
