AR:
As far as I know there is no or hardly any public funding for contemporary experimental arts in Thailand. Do you expect this situation to change, let’s say in the course of the next ten years?

SC:
I have never expected public art funding in my country because my country is still in the position of being a developing country. “Art“ is quite so “too far out“ for a developing country. I could imagine that the situation will not be changing much in the ten years to come. This comes from my own experince. During the last ten years that have gone by, I have never gotten any suppport from my own country or even have gotten involved in the art scene/directory in my own country. And also, I have noticed that in developped/rich countries that right now the situation regarding financial support means that it is being cut down. Many of my plans/projects that I was invited with by big institutes - such as large scale museums/galleries - could not be realized because they found their budgets cut down.
