Lolay was born in 1970 and graduatead with a Master in Fine Art from Silapakorn University in 1996. Lolay is a keen observer of people, their physical and mental characteristics. Using his imagination, in his work he goes on to ponder whether people's features are related to their behavior, culture, social standing and other aspects.
