Street art in Thailand has gained attention, and nowhere more so than Bangkok’s central Chaloemla Park, where people of all skill levels can receive permission to paint on the walls. Young artists and tourists gather to admire the art, and then spread it all over the country. Prominent street artists have worked since before the recent popularity of the medium in order to depict the changes occurring in Thai society. In this episode, we meet the artists painting a generation onto city walls.
