《Save me, Save world!》: 15 Sequences on Imperfection

 This exhibition features a series of 15 narrative paintings that sublimate the sense of loss following the paralysis of the artist's right arm. Rather than packaging the rehabilitation process simply as a story of "overcoming disability," the artist presents a calm visual record of how we face the deficiencies and imperfections inherent in everyone's life.

 The exhibition is structured around a comic-book-style plot: Introduction – Development – Crisis – Climax – Resolution. Following this flow, the audience witnesses the gradual journey from dark moments of self-loathing to the breath of recovery found through creation.

 Figures in the paintings, once collapsed in helplessness, slowly reach out toward the light. The faint glimmer leaking through the cracks of a fragmented world eventually overtakes the entire canvas, allowing new vitality to sprout.

 The artist suggests, "Saving oneself is not a grand heroic narrative, but begins with the small decision to acknowledge one's own deficiencies." This exhibition serves as both a fierce record of personal recovery and a quiet mirror reflecting the blind spots in each of our lives.

《Beyond the Light》: On Encounter and Choice

《Beyond the Light》 transports the confessions the artist textualized in his book into a visual space. While previous works were records of passing through a tunnel of loss, this exhibition deals with the light encountered at the end of that tunnel and the journey that follows.

The figure in the work struggles in the swamp of habitual daily life and self-deprecation, only to face 'another self' that appears following the light. Through this inevitable encounter, the artist realizes that what weighed down life was not external problems, but the internal dissonance of self-distrust.

Connecting like scenes in a road movie, the works capture the psychological shift as a collapsed self eventually 'chooses' happiness. The artist hopes this exhibition serves not as a clear answer sheet, but as a quiet question mark cast into the hearts of the viewers. What will be your next scene?

《Yes, I'm Paralyzed》: The Language of the Left Hand Learned from Collapse

《Yes, I'm Paralyzed》 marks Dokko's debut solo exhibition and serves as an autobiographical record of reawakening the senses of life. An unexpected accident in Chiang Mai resulted in the paralysis of his right arm, stripping away his lifelong routines. The loss of his dominant hand was not merely a functional paralysis but the destruction of the tool he used to prove his existence.

What broke the long silence was his unfamiliar 'left hand.' As he began drawing webtoons with this clumsy hand, he quieted the inner noise of despair. The unintended tremors and atypical lines paradoxically became a new formative language that most honestly captured his anxiety and desperation.

This exhibition expands the record of survival, which began in digital media (webtoons), onto canvas paintings. This is not a heroic tale of 'overcoming' disability. Rather, it is the 'burning first act' of a human being proving his existence once again from the very spot where he collapsed, using a clumsy but desperate left hand.
