Savanhdary Vongpoothorn: Aflame, currently showing at Campbelltown Arts Centre features new work created by Vongpoothorn completed over a two-year period. The body of work draws inspiration from the Ādittapariyāya Sutta (Pali, “Fire Sermon Discourse”) in Theravada Buddhism – a discourse from the Pali Canon popularly known as the Fire Sermon. The exhibition includes a major kinetic sculptural installation, new works on canvas and photogravure etchings. This project has been assisted by the Commonwealth Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body. This project has also been supported by ArtsACT. A preview of the exhibition, written by Nikita Holcombe appears in the latest issue of Artist Profile. Purchase your copy here.
