The Story Behind the Art:

'My name is Anchalika Chamnan, I come from northern Thailand. My hometown is renowned as a trading town and my family and relatives are involved in different types of trading. Even if embroidery is a traditional skill for the women in our area and everybody can do it, I still need to learn more about patterns to create more interesting pieces. I am glad that we will have the chance to display our work to the world. To show more work is not only a channel for us to earn more, it means we can have the opportunity to support people from our village by offering them more work.'
