The 1973 series is born of nostalgia, passion, dream and memory. Tawan Wattuya begins with a search for ‘images’ that go back in the fading memory and are disjointed. Super hero cartoon images, the album cover of the record with the melody of the song being heard, news photos of important events from the past and artifacts representing an era. It's like a time machine that takes him back almost half a century.‘Image’ is changed to ‘Representation’, a timeless dreamlike memory. Forming the artist's identity with the technique of drawing collages by choosing the original image from different sources to contrast and make it ‘representative’ and connecting to one's identity and memory. Tawan creates painting with a combination of techniques: realistic drawing with fuzzy free-form sketching. The arrangement of bright colors with black and white, the intention to leave the space and overlay. A picture that paints traces of time. They all create an experience of seeing Tawan Wattuya's work in a new way, connecting together parts of the past, the dimension of time, the experience of the audience and the artist's identity.
