Belle Phromchanya
artistiek onderzoek - audiovisueel - cross-over - design - documentair
Born in Bangkok in 1984, Belle Phromchanya was trained as a graphic designer before relocating to Amsterdam in 2011 to study MA Design at the Sandberg Institute. She continues her artistic practice between The Netherlands and Thailand until today. Her works address subjects such as, political memeification, digital legacy, marginalized-transborder identities, and contemporary migration, many of which are rooted in the unsettling relationship between herself and the globalized society. Her works have been shown at Beijing Design Week, Bangkok Art and Culture Centre, De Appel Arts Centre, Objectifs Singapore, Pakhuis de Zwijger, Porto Design Biennale, and W139 among others. Belle is a co-founder of NON NATIVE NATIVE, an independent platform based in Rotterdam aiming to extend the international, non-western discourses within the cultural landscape, operating in collaboration with various disciplines to celebrate the art of reclaiming the unclaimed.
