Hathaikan Kongaunruan – Facilitator
Hathaikan, is a socially engaged and digitally curious Artist, Facilitator and Producer who creates collaborative work that challenges how we assign value to materials and objects through DIY and open source methods. Influenced by her upbringing as a second-generation immigrant, revisiting Thailand deepened her exploration into folklore, rituals, and spiritual symbols digitally through an eco-feminist lens.
Kongaunruan, invites viewers to slow down, notice the overlooked, and imagine new relationships with waste. Combining physical and digital making methods – she will invite you to explore the hidden narrative of objects, memories and domestic spaces.
As an artist recently shifting into digital realms, Hattie will share her insights and top tips on securing funding from the Arts Council’s Develop Your Creative Practice which has supported her digital journey.
