Biography
Sarisa is a Thai multidisciplinary artist and researcher whose practice has developed across performance art, sculpture, digital illustration, generative media, and interdisciplinary cultural projects. Her work is concerned with the relationship between the body, identity, technology, and cultural memory.
Her early practice was rooted in performance and sculpture, with the body functioning as both material and site of investigation. Over time, physical adaptation and changing modes of artistic production led her practice increasingly toward digital and generative media. Her lived experience as a transgender woman has also informed an ongoing engagement with questions of embodiment, identity, transformation, and the systems through which bodies are represented and classified.
She holds a Master of Fine Arts in Visual Arts from Chiang Mai University and is currently a PhD Research Fellow in Artistic Research at the Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design, University of Bergen. Her doctoral research develops from her long-standing interest in bodily knowledge toward the relationship between somatic practice and generative artificial intelligence.
Alongside her artistic practice, Dhammalangka has worked across cultural development and creative-sector initiatives in Thailand. She co-founded Chiangmai Gastro Society and Chiangmai Jazz City, developing collaborations across art, culture, technology, gastronomy, and urban development. These experiences have extended her practice beyond the studio into collaborative and interdisciplinary forms of cultural production.
