No man ever steps in the same river twice

“The river I wade into is never the same. Its waters drift, its currents change. All things flow, all things fade. In each moment, all is remade. We cannot step in the same river twice.”- Heraclitus

The stream may seem still, yet it flows, slipping past us, carried by time’s endless course. So, it is with life.

The exhibition “No man ever steps in the same river twice” presents the space of transition within the currents of artistic expression. It reflects on the dynamic flow from the era when modern art first ignited a blaze of innovation, sparking shifts in thought and creative approaches that continue to shape contemporary art today. These transformations create an ongoing dialogue across time and space. In Thailand, the rise of modern art was influenced by historical, social, political, and cultural shifts as the country transitioned from old traditions to a new era. Each artistic era, therefore, encapsulates profound narratives of social phenomena, shaping and shaped by the ever-changing landscape of society.

This exhibition brings together selected works from Silpakorn University Art Collections, juxtaposing pieces from a past era with those of contemporary artists to create a dialogue across time. Within this space of transition, we witness shifts in artistic forms, concepts, techniques, and even perspectives on creative thought. Each work embodies a sense of movement, engaging in an ongoing exchange that resonates with the present audience. As the world changes, so too does society, and art evolves alongside it. This exhibition invites us to observe what endures, what transforms, and how art interacts with the ever-shifting social landscape.
