The work fits into the general concept of the exhibition and mass extinction of animal life on the planet, but also to a local one. Earlier this year, one of Thailand's wealthy moguls, Premchai Karnasuta, was caught illegally poaching endangered animals in protected reserve. It quickly grabbed national headlines as case that more broadly reflected the public concern about how the law is treated with impunity by the connected and wealthy. It has also sparked activism among artists.

Exhibited with the solo exhibition, The Reconstruction
