TOUCH ME — Pare Patcharapa Inchang — 89books — 2022

Made from a ritual of repetition, Touch Me gathers self-portraits taken after Patcharapa’s Ashtanga yoga practice between 2016 and 2019. The body remains nearly fixed while the image surface shifts through blue, violet, stains and painted interventions, turning routine into a record of time. Seventy photographs correspond symbolically to seventy years of Thai monarchy, connecting an intimate physical discipline to a wider political chronology. The elastic-bound book preserves the raw, unstable quality of the original photographic work.
