Arty Nicharee’s practice is a gentle inquiry into the narratives embedded in materials.

Originally from Bangkok and now based in London, the visual designer and student at Royal College of Art uses illustration and ceramics to trace the contours of memory, femininity, queerness, and the diasporic experience.

In a turn towards the tactile, her recent work embraces hand-built clay as a tool for connection—to self, to community, and to the earth.

Through workshops designed to reclaim creativity from market pressures, she invites others into a shared process of making.

This philosophy extends to her materials, as she exclusively uses reclaimed clay. This process of revival is central to her art: breathing new life into discarded substances becomes a quiet act of defiance and a celebration of the overlooked.
