Chatuchak, by Aude-Emilie Dorion

This was taken in Chatuchak, the biggest flea market of Southeast Asia, in Bangkok, Thailand in March, 2010. It is a place full of wonders with objects of all times. If you go there over the weekends, it is packed with people. The best day to go there is on the Fridays, when the place is deserted and seems only to unveil its secrets to the curious souls around.

Photograph Location: Chatuchak, Bangkok | Thailand

Photographer: Aude-Emilie Dorion (Paris, France) Registered
Freelance photographer and writer Aude-Emilie Dorion was born in France in 1980. Sensitive to the effect of globalization on modern cultures and the inequity of the world’s economic development, tensions and transformations are at the heart of her creative work. Working in the live performance industry, photography from time to time became the best vector of communication. Aude-Emilie loves artistic photography but has always been attracted by social documentary and photojournalism. When the Art becomes more social and political it reaches one of its primary functions: raising public awareness, acting as a catalyst for political changes.
