Goodbye CMU

Goodbye CMU
Year 2018

Goodbye CMU is a collection of photomontages that captures the essence of the Thai educational subculture, where the ceremony and ritual at the end of the degree hold significant importance for the graduates and their relatives. The dreamy and dramatic photoshoots evoke a sense of achievement and accomplishment. The images feature Jaajr wearing graduate gown, holding fake books, posing in front of a backdrop of a library. The montage technique used to create these images adds a sense of surrealism to the collection, amplifying the dreamlike quality of the photographs. This series celebrates the accomplishments of the Jaajr’s graduation and the traditions that are so deeply embedded in Thai culture.
