After the raging inferno subsided, what remained was a collection of evidence revealing the devastating aftermath. The tranquil release of residual heat at low temperatures, combined with the presence of oxygen gas, created intriguing wisps of red amidst the blackened embers. It was a transient beauty amidst the tragedy, destined to be forgotten soon, just like every time before.
หลังจากเปลวไฟที่โหมกระหน่ำ ก็เหลือไว้ซึ่งหลักฐานแห่งความเกรี้ยวกราด การปลดปล่อยความร้อนอย่างสงบในอุณหภูมิต่ำ ผสมกับก๊าซออกซิเจน สีแดงวาบในเถ้าสีดำดูน่าสนใจ เป็นสุนทรียะที่งดงามในความเลวร้าย ในไม่ช้าก็ถูกลืมไปเหมือนทุกครั้งที่ผ่านมา

In the "Man-Made Apocalypse" exhibition, Supmanee Chaisansuk explores the human nature and the impact of human actions on the environment, as well as the consequences that we face.
Previously working as a research architect, she often worked with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to simulate and understand the movement of smoke and fog, leading to her fascination with their shapes and movements which inspired this exhibition.
The artist examines various issues using the symbolism of smoke and fog. Through these symbols, she conveys the alarming consequences that impact our health and the planet, emphasising the inevitability of an apocalyptic outcome. Additionally, Supmanee employs geometrical elements to highlight how human nature is at the root of these problems.
Supmanee delves into the consequences of human greed, capitalism, and consumerism on the environment. These harmful practices have led to irreversible environmental disasters, like forest fires caused by clearing land for contract farming and prioritising benefits of emission-secreting manufacturers over our rights to receive clean air. The exhibition also highlights other contributing factors, such as false emissions reporting and unethical profits gained through the exploitation of consumerism, agriculture, industrialisation, and war.
