Artist in Focus – Ajon K
Filmmaker & Suthep Art Stay Ambassador
Based in Chiang Mai | ajoncineplex.com
“I’m inspired by demons in old Thai myths — creatures like Medusa, Yaksha, and Chalawan. They reflect indigenous beliefs that still echo today.”
Ajon Kibreab is a Bangkok-born electrical engineer turned self-taught filmmaker. His short films have been screened at international festivals in New York, Belgrade, and Bangkok. At Suthep Art Stay, his visual world spills into the room — from spirit cloths inspired by crocodile folklore, to batik from his grandmother and hand-woven Pha Sinh bed covers traditionally worn by women.
This living space becomes a cinematic moodboard — one shaped by myths, textiles, and music.
Soundtrack curation:
• Lae vinyl from Kwanjit Sriprajan
• Experimental Molam x Dancehall by DJ Maarten
