♥ JADED, 24 (+3 Covid years), Sassy Scorpio, Bangkok born, London based, of well-educated and international background. This Scorpio was awarded First Class Honors from an art college with the abbreviation 'CSM', located in Granary Square, Kings Cross, for BA Architecture. 

 A 'Culture Producer' is what this Scorpio aspired to put in their email signature as a job title one day. Not only are they a veteran in managing 3 gradation shows. They have experience designing, promoting, producing, and servicing cultural events and museums in Bangkok, London, and Singapore. Scorpio had worked collaboratively alongside Alliance Française Bangkok, Bureau of the Royal Household, Singapore Institution of Architects (SIA), Royal College of Art (RCA) and Thailand Creative & Design Center (TCDC). 

This Scorpio has an apartment on Uranus but with a questionable credit score. They enjoy reading foreign language books that were translated poorly by AIs. Sassy Scorpio is a devoted shipper of Frederick the Great X Voltaire. 

While in their spare time, apart from being a meme economist, they write mischievous and eccentric text for Content Free. Their previous project, a five-part series called 'Update From The Digital Space', encapsulated Zoom education's awkwardness in a comical, satirical and unapologetic manner. 

Sassy Scorpio is seeking… anything really! 

Be it employment, capital, commission, collaboration, relationship....

Or just someone to look at their project ↓

“Chronic diseases, tribulations, and self-deprecation. 

These were the ingredients chosen to create the perfect angsty art student project.

But this troubled soul accidentally added an extra ingredient to the concoction, ‘Juvenalian Satire’.

Thus, Ministry of Situational Oddities was born.

Using the ultra-super powers of ‘ample knowledge in the realm of the Anthropocene’, ‘psychological projection’ and ‘genuine lack of compassion’ as a coping mechanism and excuses to make memes”

- Definitely not the intro from the much loved 2000s animation 'P▇▇r Pu▇ Gi▇' .

 Ministry of Situational Oddities (MSO) has one primary objective: to witness and document the ‘strange occurrences’ that manifest according to your impending Anthropocentric Extinction. 

'Obscuritas, Tempus, Destructio'

It had never occurred to me that one day I would be breaking the taboo of creating a project about myself or orienting it around subjectivity. This taboo was implanted deeply in me through years of rigorous training as an Architecture Designer. Everything was always about the 'user', 'the client' or 'the community'. 

But when your bodily flesh failed you, your mind left disassociated- time skipped and paused, your past writes your future, nothing else mattered. My defects and shortcoming were mines. Mine alone.

These were the ‘tools’ I have been given. I envision them coming together as a large oculus, where I can examine my surrounding, distorted and unreliable. But I then realized that are two sides to an oculus. You can see an ant from your magnifying glass, but you can also project the sun down to the poor ant….
