Ha/f Culture - What are you, Jirat James Patradoon?

For the exotic, displaced, and eclectic. For those who are unique but can seemingly be from anywhere. For those who cannot accurately discribe themselves by checking “all that apply.” And for anyone who has ever been asked:

What are you?

Ha/f Culuture is a collection of articles and artifacts that celebrate the eccentric and multicolored; what is niether here nor there.

What are you, Jirat James Patradoon?

I was born in 1985 in Thailand and raised in Sydney, Australia on a super-diet of cartoons, comic books, and sci-fi movies.

Now I make giant candy coloured screenprints/posters you can look at and adore but cannot eat. I have always dreamt of joining the X-men, or becoming Ultraman, or Dracula, or a Lucha Libre pro wrestler. These ambitions reflect themselves in my work.

I worry about alternate realities, the poor Hikikomoris, and cosplay supplies. One day I want to publish a book about my research into parallel universes but until then I will stick to drawing pictures.
