Summer Panadda Tempaiboonkul is a Thai illustration artist and curator. She was born and raised by Teochew Min and Hakka families in Bangkok's multicultural community, where Muslim, Christian, and Sikh cultures coexist and thrive together. With a foundation in Thai studies, Summer's art often explores cultural diversity, cultural politics, history and memory, and folklore, bringing these themes to life through her creative lens.

 

Currently, as a research student in the International Master Program in Cultural and Creative Industries at the National Taipei University of the Arts, she investigates the nuanced relationships between humans, society, and environments. Her projects capture the memory of ordinary people, social movements, and contemporary issues, spanning from gender equality to indigenous cultural and community rights.
