Born and raised in Bangkok. Pracha has been interested in art since childhood. No one in his family was interested or involved in art before. Started fascinated in photography since 2016 after watching a clip of Siam Street Nerd #01 — “What’s street photography?”. It made him excited and interested in photography again after leaving it since studenthood. “It’s like going back to play my favorite toys again. I use it as a tool to find myself besides drawing; discover a weirdness in daily life, question what I see” Pracha said. His works are quite different from his fellow photographers; tend to ignore what Thai street photographers today are doing. Also obviously dark, disturbed, and mysterious. Some interesting change is appearing from inside of his work significantly. He made a zine called “ Perfect Imperfection” which is about photographic works of 2016–2019. Currently Pracha works as a graphic, character designer and illustrator living in Samut Sakhon.
