Kamonchanok Phon-ngam is a Thai mixed media and visual artist based in New York. Born and raised in Thailand, her practice explores memory, emotional balance, and the quiet complexities of everyday life. Working with a diverse range of materials—including textiles, hand-stitching, found objects, and layered surfaces—she creates tactile compositions that reflect inner landscapes shaped by personal history, cultural movement, and lived experience.
Growing up in Thailand and building a life in New York continues to shape how she understands belonging, identity, and transformation. Her work moves between softness and tension, comfort and uncertainty, mirroring the emotional rhythms of human life.
Alongside her material exploration, Kamonchanok engages with reflections on the human condition—the shifting nature of emotion, the search for meaning, and how we navigate vulnerability, connection, and care. Her sensitivity toward animals and living beings, as well as her interest in spiritual and contemplative traditions, often informs the emotional tone of her work.
Rather than focusing on grand narratives, she is interested in small moments: acts of repair, quiet reflection, and the subtle process of becoming. Stitch by stitch and layer by layer, her works invite viewers to pause and reconnect with the deeper textures of feeling that shape everyday life.
Her art is not only about expression, but about holding space—for change, empathy, and the unseen emotional layers that quietly shape who we are.
