Apichatpong Weerasethakul

7 prints

Weerasethakul's films exist in the green abundance of the Thai jungle and the institutional fluorescent of its hospitals and military bases. Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives uses darkness and shadow as presences, not absences. Tropical Malady tracks its shift from social realism to mythic nightmare partly through the quality of light, from warm daylight to the blue-black of the forest at night.
