We are delighted to present Stillness in Plain Sight, an evocative photo exhibition by Rath Chun and Malcolm McLoughlin. About the Artists Rath Chun is a documentary filmmaker and visual artist with a background in architecture. He holds a bachelor’s degree from Chulalongkorn University, pursued graduate studies at l’École Supérieure d’Architecture de Paris-Belleville, and earned an MA in Screen Documentary from Goldsmiths, University of London. Rath’s creative practice moves fluidly across photography, filmmaking, and outdoor painting. He is drawn to the understated beauty of the everyday, using image-making as a contemplative space where inner thought and outer world meet. For Rath, the camera becomes a stage where the unseen reveals itself - where stillness speaks.
Malcolm McLoughlin began his photographic journey in the wake of personal loss. In January 2021, he received a Canon camera from a friend; a week later, his father passed away. Amid the pandemic’s stillness, he wandered the quiet streets of Paris, capturing the subtle poetry of absence and presence. What began as an act of healing became the foundation of his artistic voice. Since then, he has photographed Nobel Laureates, leading photographers, concerts, and global events. Yet the streets of Paris remain his truest canvas. Stillness in Plain Sight marks his debut international exhibition.
