SUMMARY:Chiang Mai Art Connecting (CMAC)
DESCRIPTION:An Ongoing Movement of Art and Exchange \nLaunched in late 2019\, Chiangmai Art Connecting (CMAC) began as an extension of Hanoi Art Connecting\, founded by Trinh Tuan of Asian Art Link (AAL). Initiated by La Luna Gallery as part of its founding vision\, CMAC-I aimed to create a platform for artists across Southeast Asia to explore shared creativity and express complex emotions through visual language—often saying what words cannot. \nIn its inaugural edition\, 19 artists came together\, supported by AAL\, Bluechips Microhouse\, and La Luna Gallery. Workshops and collaborative art-making set the tone for what would become a recurring international initiative. However\, just as the project was gaining momentum\, the COVID-19 pandemic brought the world—and CMAC—to a pause. \nIn September 2020\, amidst ongoing restrictions\, La Luna Gallery hosted “Reconnecting”\, a local exhibition that revived CMAC’s core purpose: fostering human connection through art. The original CMAC-I collection continued to be shown in rotation\, keeping the spirit of exchange alive. \nWith global conditions improving\, CMAC-II returned in 2023 under the theme “How the World Changed After the Pandemic.” This edition welcomed 35 artists from Southeast Asia\, East Asia\, South Asia\, and parts of Europe\, expanding both the scope and impact of the project. Alongside exhibitions\, lacquer painting demonstrations by AAL members deepened CMAC’s commitment to traditional craft and cultural sharing. \nFollowing overwhelmingly positive feedback and increased engagement from artists and visitors alike\, the organizing team—AAL\, Bluechips Microhouse\, La Luna Gallery\, and Art Connecting—announced plans for CMAC-III\, scheduled for November 2025. From this edition forward\, CMAC will adopt a biennial format\, continuing to bring artists together under evolving themes that spark dialogue\, collaboration\, and cross-cultural understanding.

SUMMARY:International Women’s Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition honoring the strength\, creativity\, and voices of women across cultures and generations. \nBringing together works by Cordt Holland\, David Kwan Shon\, Than Kyaw Htay\, Preeyanuch Pakkul\, and U Bat Sat\, the exhibition reflects on the role of women in society—both celebrated and challenged. Each artist offers a distinct perspective\, exploring themes of identity\, resilience\, memory\, and everyday life through painting\, photography\, and mixed media. \nIn parallel\, a hands-on side activity led by Kru Boonwattana invites visitors to engage with traditional sa-paper stencil making\, blending craft with reflection in a communal setting. \nThis exhibition is both a tribute and a conversation—an artistic space where diverse experiences of womanhood are shared\, questioned\, and honored.
