Tomorrow, Dec.10, is the last day of the event. The Bangkok Illustration Fair brings talented artists together in one place.
Kant is one of the new faces that I’ve met on my visit at BACC for the .
His booth is set up in a way that really caught my eyes. As I got closer, he introduced me to “Mr.Halfman”
Mr. Halfman is a storyteller from the parallel universe. In his “ordinary” universe where he exists, his form is depicted in black with a white line that runs vertically, dividing his face in half.
The design of the character that questions the world and our existence makes Kant’s work stand out.
Kant pointed to one of his works - Mr.Halfman- and explained that while you’re happily eating ice cream, in a parallel universe, you could have accidentally dropped the ice cream and felt sad about it.
While one canvas showed a negative possible outcome, portrayed in colors, the other canvas portrayed in black, revealed a positive outlook in a situation.
