Stuck together in a small vessel, Thai media artists must work together to stay afloat. At the same time they are also trying to out-live one another. While lost at sea, they are waving and screaming in order to get any kind of attention hoping to be rescued. Some of them are fortunate and have been ‘scooped up’ by a passing European liner. The rest of them can only watch and hold on to what they have – their talent, their pride and their hopes.” Michael Shaowanasai

Lifeboat #2551 is curated by one of Thailand’s key contemporary artists, Michael Shaowanasai. It brings together a cross generational mix of media artists from Thailand.
