Having witnessed significant shifts within the Thai art world during its near-decade-long run, Bangkok’s film and performance triennale, Ghost (
@ghost2568ghost ), has reached its third and final iteration. Yet, for Ghost, the measure of life well-lived seems not to be longevity, but legacy; the echoes that persist.
