Chulayarnnon Siriphol (Thai: จุฬญาณนนท์ สิริผล; b. 1986) is a Thai artist and filmmaker who employs moving images and his body as his main medium. Born in Bangkok, Thailand, he currently resides and works in the same city.[1] He works across various genres, such as short films, performance video and video installations. Mixing local mythologies, Thai literature and science fiction, reflections on the body and spirituality serve to question contemporary culture and political ideology in Thailand and beyond with a mixture of sincerity and sarcasm. Recurring themes in his work are references to Thai literature and popular culture, such as the novel Behind the Painting (Thai: ข้างหลังภาพ) by Kulap Saipradit and a Golden Snail figure.
Chulayarnnon has received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang and a Master of Fine Arts from Silpakorn University, both located in Bangkok, Thailand. His work has been included in large-scale international art exhibitions such as the Fukuoka Asian Art Triennale, the video and performance triennial Ghost:2561 and the Asian Art Biennial. His films have been screened at international film festivals and institutions, including Cannes Film Festival and Tate Modern.
