By Veena Thoopkrajae

Asian countries have always shared a degree of similarity but the past 3 years have seen the region go through a multitude of changes due to the COVID outbreak. Scenes related to the pandemic have appeared in various media but now, for the first time, a selection of photographs from Asia are on show in an exhibition in Bangkok that coincides with APEC 2022.

 

Co-organized by China Daily and Asia News Network, the photo exhibition on the theme “Changing Asia – New Normal” is now on show in Atrium 3 of CentralWorld shopping centre.  The exhibition attracted 179 photographers from 18 countries, with 1,175 images submitted. Seventy-eight of those entries from Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Palestine, the Philippines, Russia, South Korea, Thailand, Türkiye, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam have been selected for the Bangkok show.

The exhibition, which continues through November 20, reviews the changes in life during the COVID-19 pandemic and encourages people to move towards a new beginning, actively responding to the construction of a community of a shared future for mankind, as proposed by President Xi Jinping in 2013.

 

Professional photographers in Asia were invited to submit photos taken in the past three years documenting how Asians adapted to the new normal in their daily lives, including work, recreation, creative pursuits, health and beauty, animals, festivals, health, the arts, eateries, and education.
