On a quick trip to Bangkok (... see One Night In Bangkok blog), I managed to visit MOCA (the Museum Of Contemporary Art). Amazed and enthralled with the many Thai Art pieces on display, I spent close to five hours there (which did not seem adequate, especially if one is taking photos). Towards the end, my legs were cramped as I walked around without hardly taking a rest.

Posted here are some photos of the artwork for you to enjoy.
But bear in mind that my photos does not do justice to many of the artwork, especially the larger pieces, as the photos will not show the efforts put in by the artists in the details.
