An art work, titled Memory, features life-sized depictions of a child. The piece was created using paper mache, which was then covered in dust collected from steel industry in Saraburi province, Thailand.
The art work is created by a Thai artist, Ruangsak Anuwatwimon to be displayed at ‘Right to Clean Air - The Art Exhibition. The event is organised by Greenpeace Southeast Asia at the Bangkok Art and Culture Center. It aims at raising public awareness on the impacts of air pollution and calls upon the Pollution Control Department to upgrade Thailand’s Air Quality Index (AQI) and enforce preventive measures on microscopic dust particles smaller than 2.5 microns (PM 2.5) in order to protect public health.
