In Greek mythology, the Charites are goddesses of charm, nature, human creativity, beauty, fertility, and danger. Despite the fact that they were goddesses who were overlooked and worshipped by the Greek gods. However, they influenced numerous artists to create works of art such as Antonio Canova, Peter Paul Rubens, Sandro Botticelli, etc. “The Graces (Charites)” exhibition is divided into three chapters.

The beauty of nature in the present has disappeared, Chapter 1 “Thalia”, is the routine that is repeated in the daily life of most people such as getting up, bathing, working, getting home, bathing, and going to bed. Working people have no time to look up at the sky because of their schedules. While the sky is a beautiful spot and may also bring edification or friends at a lonely moment. In the end, the best time to look at the sky would be just the weekend.

Chapter 2 “Euphrosyne”, the creative charm which is frequently ignored. Because nowadays, people are more concerned with the outer appearance or the benefits that it provides. This exhibition wants the audience to see the process of working because there are many factors in the charm of creating a work that may be memories or conveying feelings.

The concept of this floor to an adventure, facing left to see the scenery when the sunlight can shine through, facing right to the sky that changes according to people's feelings and the front is Bangkok 10 years ago, all these viewers’ vision will happen in Chapter 3 “Aglaea”, the fertility and danger. Viewer's body standing on the ground It's like a wild adventure in Bangkok but people get lost causing a feeling of volatility.

Pacharadanai Wijarana, our intern from SAC Academy, chose this exhibition based on the curator's aims, which are to have everyone look back at the inside stories of the works as well as a group of people who are a crucial part in the movement of things around us but are often disregarded. As a result, the curator wants everyone to understand the significance of this section. On the other side, it's also uplifting for everyone going through these terrible times, in the hopes that it will help everyone relax and see art in a new light. And I hope that everyone will turn around and look about them, whether it's at objects or at people.
