Announcement
- My name is Ohm. I am an artist.
I am here to share my vision to the world.
I believe that without art, life is never fully lived.
And I also believe in love. Love is a privileged thing, and that not everyone experiences it. And even people who experience it, only certain few can understand it.
If you want to know me, look at my photographs. And if you still don't understand me, then please ask.

New project and upcoming exhibition
Wednesday, Feb 24, 2010 3:58AM / Members only
Hello everyone,
Okay, I guess I have to be more active with AnD community!! It's hard however sometimes to juggle life and and handle so many things at one time.
So the latest update is I had a shoot with disabled people two weeks ago. I put a twist on it this time by blending in fashion and art together. I had my students as my assistants during the shoot so that they could learn how to handle a shoot. Below are the products of the shoot. 7 people, 7 shots.
Let me know what you think!
I will also be annoucing my upcoming group show in Bangkok soon. The show will be opening on March 13. Details to follow.
Until then, take good care of yourself and the loved ones.

Another review of the Disabled in Art Forum

Ohm Phanphiroj
H GALLERY
201 Sathorn Soi 12
November 4–December 2
Ohm Phanphiroj, Untitled, 2009, black-and-white photograph, 10 x 14 1/2". From the series “The Disabled,” 2009.
Ohm Phanphiroj’s latest series of photographs, “The Disabled,” 2009, was shot at the “Male Disabled Center and Rehabilitation” in southeast Thailand. In these works, Phanphiroj eschews the high production values of his previous images of beautiful young men and Thai transsexuals for heavily shadowed and mostly gritty black-and-white shots. Many of the figures lie or crouch; some are naked, including one man who is tied to a pipe while, nearby, a dog dozes in the shade. Phanphiroj also resists the conventions of portraiture for views of the disabled men in situ. Soulless concrete architecture is featured consistently.
A number of photographs show his subjects struggling with the ritual of washing themselves. In one work, a youth staring impassively from the edge of bed is juxtaposed with the useless legs of a fellow patient. An exception in the series is a touching color photograph of a man smiling, albeit inanely, at the viewer.
“The Disabled” demonstrates Phanphiroj’s strengths as a photographer insofar as he manages to invoke a certain tradition––documentary photographs of “the other”––while complicating the tradition’s raison d’être. That is, these photographs resist voyeurism and spectacle. This is a welcome departure in terms of Phanphiroj’s oeuvre generally (his previous series rely heavily on conventional precedents) and suggests a necessary signpost for those who choose to work in this mode.
