Victor Ketom
Lives and works in Bangkok, Thailand
Artist statement
Victor Ketom is a multidisciplinary artist investigating the tension between organic life and technological systems. His practice spans sculptural objects, wearable pieces, and immersive installations, using 3D printing, recycled plastics, electronic components, light, and augmented overlays. At the core of his artistic vision lies the question of whether nature and technology are destined for conflict or capable of co-evolution. His works are presented as artifacts from futures that never fully arrived, exploring how digital systems may carry emotion, how synthetic surfaces can hold memory, and how artificial environments host silence and ritual. Living and working in Bangkok – a city of extremes where spiritual density meets algorithmic speed – Ketom finds resonance in the coexistence of sacred temples and luminous skyscrapers, organic moss and fiber-optic cables. His work traces the edges where decay becomes data, where flesh becomes interface.
