History about Media Art Festival 2002
with Janine Yasovant, MPA. Director of the Festival
"Art is a way of life for Thais, whether it is traditional mural art, or post-modern installations, art isn't defined with stereotypes; it's constantly redefining itself to suit the needs of contemporary Thais. Art is a reflection of a culture. And with Thai art it's a fine balance of traditional art forged with new contemporary ideas, making the local art scene fertile for fecund movements to spring. "

Navaporn Sukumaraphan:
I was a student with a scholarship of Pattani Province. I passed the selection exam and was chosen to study at Natasilapa College when I was in Primary school-year 5. I studied for years and received a bachelor’s degree there. My major was drama and my minor was musical art. In 1990 I was a representative for a cultural exchange program with Tajikistan for six months. Later, 20 Thai students and I were contacted for a show at Pyongyang, the capitol of North Korea. To be honest, Koreans have high discipline. They work quickly and efficiently, something which many of us Thai people lack. In 2000 I was invited to work as a cultural teacher at the distant education center in New York. The location was at the Thai temple, Wat Buddha Thaithavornvanaram I was a co-teacher with a Thai monk and we taught both in English and Thai. We had around 300 students who came from various states of America and they had a chance to join the summer festival. After that, I travelled to teach the art of performance to Thai students who were in Schengen countries such as Austria, Germany, France and Belgium.
