Sophirat is a self-taught artist and currently one of Thailand's leading nude photographers. She had spent three years working as a photographer in Germany prior to moving back home in 2013 where she started to exhibit her works and established herself in the Thailand art scene.
Sophirat is interested in human thought. She is often inspired by stories of people, nature, animals, subculture and the situation of Thai society. She answers her questions through her works about what she was interested in at that time. Since 2019, she has been working on an 'artist-in-residence' program because she would like to have an opportunity to research and collaborate with local people about their thoughts about their own body and ask them to use their body to talk about contemporary events such as politics, nature, pollution, subculture, beauty standards and more. Besides this, she tries to empower people to start loving their body and respect diversity.
Her works have been exhibited, among the others, at Bangkok Art and Cultural Center (BACC), Photo Fair Thailand at BITEC (Bangkok), Toot Yung Art Center (Chiangmai), Museum of Contemporary Art - MOCA (Bangkok), Objectifs-Centre for Photography and Film (Singapore), Rebel Art Space (Bangkok), Innerspace (LA,USA).
Beside being an artist, she is a freelance curator who is interested in emerging artists. Sophirat was a curator for 'Phayao Photography Biennale 2021-2022' & 'Chiangmai Blooms City Gallery 2023'.
Her works are part of the collections of MAIIAM Contemporary Art Museum (Thailand) and Museum of Contemporary Art - MOCA (Bangkok).
"Not just simple nude; her work is a combination of artistic, idea, and art of pulling out of identity. Many works of Sophirat show us various identities of models; telling their hidden stories through skins, gestures, and complex lights and colors."
