Shin Sheen, raised in Pattaya, Thailand, finds profound artistic inspiration in the sea, a reservoir of memories and solace shaped by his coastal upbringing.
From: Pattaya, Thailand
Shows: Cyanotypes


Shin Sheen, also known as Shinsheen, grew up in the vibrant coastal city of Pattaya, Thailand. From a young age, Shin followed his father, who sold goods along the beach, developing a deep connection to the sea. This connection holds profound significance for him, as he’s witnessed the ocean’s role in countless lives—whether it brings joy or eases sorrow. For Shin, the sea is both a reservoir of memories and a place of emotional solace.

“I chose the Cyanotype technique, creating images through sunlight, allowing light itself to record stories of the sea. Both light and water are elements of nature that symbolize constant change.”
