Devasom Khao Lak has introduced its Artist in Residence program on April 21, 2025, focusing on fostering artistic collaboration, promoting cultural sustainability, and enhancing community engagement.

This initiative invites local, national, and international artists to stay, create, and share their crafts through curated exhibitions, workshops, and interactive experiences. Guests will have opportunities to engage with the artists, experiencing the creative process firsthand.

Through such programs, the luxury beachfront resort aims to support the arts while establishing meaningful connections between artists and the community, ultimately elevating artistic dialogue and contributing to the preservation of cultural heritage.

Three key concepts:

1. Artist Engagement: Artists from diverse backgrounds will partake in creative projects, showcasing their work through exhibitions and interactive sessions for guests and local communities.
2. Cultural Sustainability: By supporting artistic diversity and promoting Thai art on a global stage, the program enhances Thailand’s cultural reputation while preserving its heritage.
3. Supporting Local Artists: The initiative strengthens ties between the resort and its community, offering local artists a platform to thrive within a growing artistic landscape.

Meet the featured artist, Pepe Adrian, an Ecuadorian artist and founder of Ceremonial Pacha, who specializes in preserving pre-Columbian ceramic instruments and is set to create a unique ceramic masterpiece for the resort.
