Noia (b.1982) is a visual storyteller with an educational background in Economics
and a decade of professional experience in journalism
focusing on Thailand and Southeast Asia with various media from around the world.

Originally from Hadyai, southern Thailand, where she is currently based.
As an artist, She now explores and experiments her practice across the genres –
from photography, mixed media, painting, and writing –
all for meaningful works that tell stories and aesthetically stimulate the sense of mind.

Her works are showing a great deal of subject variety in different themes
from her early documentary photography and portraiture
to recent works of vivid and abstract visual fictions in My Melancholia Melodies,
and a transcendent dark and mysterious world of ghost and spiritualism
in Thailand and the Malayu Peninsular in Into the Monsoon Mystery.
