Everywhere Gallery

Everyone has Space

Everything Possible.

About Us

 

Driven by the belief that contemporary art can bridge communities, inspire change, and serve as an experimental space for inquiry, we aim to foster the city's creative ecosystem. We believe that artists, craftsmen, designers, and creators deserve a space to "grow" and "support one another," using art as a shared medium to explore answers together as a society.

Everywhere Gallery was founded through a strong collaboration of local entrepreneurs, artists, and art managers. Launched as a Collateral Event alongside the Thailand Biennale Chiang Rai 2023, the project successfully transformed everyday spaces into art destinations, achieving remarkable milestones:

  • United 12 local businesses and establishments

  • Hosted 20 exhibitions, 5 workshops, and 3 film screenings

  • Showcased the work of over 40 participating artists

  • Attracted more than 200,000 visitors, significantly boosting local accommodations and restaurants

  • Generated over 75 million THB in economic value for local enterprises

Building on this success, the initiative evolved into the Everywhere Gallery Festival in 2024. Establishing an alternative art space accessible to the public, we partnered with 10 local establishments and 10 Chiang Rai artists under the theme "Chiang Rai, Who are you?"

The festival expanded its creative offerings to include:

  • A micro-cinema and street performances

  • Creative workshops and panel discussions

  • An Artist-in-Residence program

This endeavor successfully stimulated the local economy, generating over 11,953,000 THB in revenue circulation during the off-peak tourist season.

Through a deepening shared understanding, an ever-expanding network, and the passionate individuals driving the festival forward, our commitment to bringing art directly to the people continues to thrive and grow stronger each year.

Everywhere Gallery is a platform cultivating an art ecosystem to establish Chiang Rai as a world-class city of art.

Founder and Lead Curator

Keerati Wuttisakunchai (b. 1988, Chiang Rai) spent over 13 years as a producer and documentary filmmaker before returning to Chiang Rai four years ago. Driven by a vision to shape the city into an ideal place to live, Keerati champions initiatives that foster a thriving creative economy and a supportive ecosystem for art professionals. In 2021, Keerati founded the creative space, Grow Home-Stay and Space.

Keerati later transitioned into the arts sector, serving as a Local Coordinator for the Thailand Biennale Chiang Rai 2023. This experience inspired the co-founding of Everywhere Gallery in collaboration with local artists and the Young Entrepreneur Chamber of Commerce (YEC). Taking on the role of curator, Keerati aims to broaden the public's understanding of art and redefine the concept of an "art city" by deeply connecting it with people and society. To further deepen this understanding of Chiang Rai's art ecosystem, Keerati enrolled in the Creative Buddhist Art program at Mae Fah Luang University in 2024.

Keerati’s artistic approach is deeply rooted in social contexts. Drawing from a strong background in documentary filmmaking, Keerati’s works are a unique blend of documentary narratives and installation art, created through active collaboration with local communities. Inspired by shared childhood memories, current realities, and societal realizations, thae artworks reflect a profound sense of identity and interconnectedness. Acting as a voice for the community, Keerati firmly believes that communication can drive change, and that art is one of its most powerful forms.
