These pro bono projects aim to reimagine, establish, and nurture community-driven practices through collaborative efforts with diverse and talented communities.
The work includes creating online databases, artworks, posters, brochures, web designs, typography design, motion graphics, exhibitions, activism initiatives, workshops, and events—each tailored to amplify the impact of these initiatives.
While integrating various design disciplines and innovative technologies, such as mixed reality and digital formats, to advance community ambitions and broaden their missions, the focus remains on consistency and fostering strong community relationships.
This ensures that the outcomes align with the community’s cultural heritage, principles, and long-term welfare.
For several years, Sakarit has contributed to Womanifesto, a biannual, women-run, artist-led event spotlighting women artists worldwide. His work includes designing promotional materials and managing the website. Recently, he led a comprehensive redesign of the web archive, enhancing accessibility and preservation to highlight both renowned and underrepresented women artists for future audiences and researchers.
This project required him to curate an extensive archive of over 400 individual artworks, presenting significant challenges. However, he is confident that his redesigned website will improve user experience and foster a greater appreciation for the contributions of women artists from this Southeast Asian movement and beyond.
Dignity Returns is a worker-managed garment factory in Bangkok, Thailand, founded by former sweatshop workers who created an ethical and collaborative environment following the unexpected closure of their previous workplace. Known as the Solidarity Group, they prioritize fair labor, equality, and a commitment to ethical production. Sakarit has the privilege to collaborate with them on organizing exhibitions, creating posters, workshops, and fashion shows to advocate for fair trade and democratic, worker-driven production, where every individual in the line has a voice in the decision-making process.
