Chanakarn Semachai | Intonation 2023

Chanakarn Semachai (Punch) was born and raised in Bangkok, Thailand. Graduated in 2012 with her BA in Thailand. She earned an MFA degree from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania in 2019. Throughout her artwork, Punch explores themes of identity and multiculturalism. As well as exploring ideas through her sculptures, she is creating functional wares with similar concepts and designs. She combines a multitude of unique and exciting design elements on both her sculptures and functional vessels, creating a cohesive body of work. She developed a special technique for creating and casting color effects onto her work by layering plexiglass. Combining colors on top of colors allows her to tell stories of cross-cultural experiences and dual or multi-cultural backgrounds. She has shown her work internationally, both in Thailand, China, Taiwan, Germany, and the United States.
