The world is facing a crisis, yet many see it as a distant issue. If this mindset continues, the situation will only worsen. In the near future, more people must take notice of the warnings embedded in artistic expression. Messages from the Future speaks from a planet in decline, plagued by environmental degradation, toxic air, conflicts and waves of displacement. These signals urge society to wake up and act before irreversible damage occurs. Without awareness and collective effort, the earth’s future may be far from hopeful. The artist, Teerawat Ngamchuachit communicates this stark reality through his paintings. Though visually unembellished, they carry a depth that cannot be overlooked, challenging viewers to reflect on what lies ahead if change does not come. Until May 4. Free. ARDEL Gallery of Modern Art, 10am-6pm

This exhibition brings together two distinct artistic perspectives, exploring the balance between connection and contrast, personal recollection and shared nostalgia. This exhibition encourages visitors to reflect on their own experiences and how they influence perception. Korn Neeyabhan draws inspiration from vintage toys and dolls, crafting resin and vinyl figures that function as visual diaries. Each piece preserves fleeting moments, emotions and fragments of lived experience, inviting audiences to uncover layers of sentiment. In contrast, Jakrapong Siririn employs the concept of the Rorschach inkblot test, creating semi-abstract compositions that encourage imagination. His use of colour and form is intended to elicit emotion, allowing each person to interpret the work through their own lens. Until Apr 27. Free. 333Gallery, 11am-6pm

Kim Lim, a Filipino artist, presents a tranquil world through her paintings, shaping landscapes from interwoven branches, wild grasses and vivid tones. Her work carries a quiet strength, blending delicacy with resilience. The presence of teeth in her compositions serves as a striking metaphor for maintaining gentleness despite visible fractures. Each piece reflects an underlying tension between fragility and endurance, inviting contemplation on how beauty can persist amid disruption. The contrast between soft natural elements and symbols of resistance highlights an unspoken struggle, where tenderness does not equate to weakness. Lim’s approach transforms familiar imagery into thought-provoking scenes, capturing a sense of stillness that is both comforting and unsettling. Her canvases suggest that even in a fractured space, a quiet but unyielding force remains. Until April 20. Free. Tang Contemporary Art Bangkok, 11am-7pm

Kittisak Wanichbut’s photography exhibition explores the experience of boyhood within a society where patriarchal values hold deep influence. It portrays the shaping of identity, expectations of masculinity and the unspoken pressures passed from one generation to the next. As traditions persist, differences in beliefs and evolving ideals often create tensions between age groups, leading to inevitable conflict. Through carefully framed images, the work reveals an internal struggle – an interplay of conformity and defiance. Each photograph speaks to the subconscious, capturing emotions that shift between acceptance and resistance. The figures within these scenes may serve as echoes of childhood or projections of an adult self. Until April 26. Free. 6060 Arts Space, midday-8pm

The fourth solo exhibition by Karms delves into the fragments and remnants discovered through exploring our surroundings. It explores spaces with no clear meaning, the gaps between what we must accept and what we yearn for. One focal point is the evolving concept of ‘freedom.’ Freedom is a complex idea, one that prompts reflection on its true nature and its connection to identity. Over time, we come to understand that it’s not just about control over our environment, but also the influence the world has on us. When considering ownership and control, we are left wondering: Is this sense of power genuine, or is our existence merely shaped by external forces? This exhibition doesn’t offer answers, instead evoking a quiet, unsettling scream, questioning the forces at play between art and reality. Until Apr 20. Free. Trendy Gallery, second floor, River City Bangkok, 10am-7pm

Their art provides varied interpretations of the female body, from its role as nurturer and symbol of beauty to its representation as a historical record.
