The bond of love, simple yet profound…

Mother and Daughter (1998) by Prayad Pongdam, National Artist of Thailand in Visual Arts (Printmaking, 1998).
This woodcut print (60×40 cm.) conveys the timeless warmth and unbreakable bond between mother and child — a recurring theme in Pongdam’s works that often celebrate family, rural life, and spiritual strength.

Through bold lines, contrasting colors, and serene expressions, the artist transforms simplicity into powerful symbolism: Motherhood as the foundation of life and society.
