Dusadee Huntrakul is a multi-disciplinary artist working across mediums of sculpture, ceramic, drawing, painting, and text. Seeking human connections that extend across time, his works span the topics of archaeology, anthropology, and basic urban ecological observation. Ever since seeing his late brother bring home funky fired ceramic pots that he made at a community college’s pottery class in the USA in 1998, something profound moved within him. He started working with clay almost twenty years ago at his uncle’s ceramic studio in Bangkok.

A graduate of the Master of Fine Arts from University of California at Berkeley in 2013, Huntrakul remains to this day, committed to using fired clay, language, and other materials to compose spaces that are familiar yet unknown. Drawing inspiration from everyday encounters and accessible experiences, the works of Huntrakul are characterized by an austere charm and refined eloquence that succinctly communicate complex ideas of critical urgency in contemporary times.

Dusadee Huntrakul has exhibited widely internationally. In addition to solo presentations in Thailand and Singapore, he has been included in numerous significant group exhibitions such as “Everyone Is an Artist” Cosmopolitical Exercises with Joseph Beuys, K20 Museum (DE, 2021), Singapore Biennale 2019 – Every Step in the Right Direction (SG, 2019), Thailand Biennale 2018 – Edge of Wonderland (TH, 2018), SUNSHOWER: Contemporary Art from Southeast Asia 1980’s to Now, Mori Art Museum (JP, 2017), and the Singapore Biennale 2013 - If the World Changed (SG, 2013). In 2015, Huntrakul was also one of the Finalists for the Sovereign Art Prize, and a Finalist for the prestigious Benesse Prize in 2019 as well. His practice is represented in the collection of the Singapore Art Museum and numerous private collections around the world. Between teaching and raising a child, he keeps a modest studio practice around the Phrakanong area in Bangkok, Thailand.
