Progressive Movement leader Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit has sold three of his paintings in a non-fungible token (NFT) auction for more than 3 million baht on Tuesday, with most of the proceeds going to the Thai Lawyers for Human Rights (TLHR) group.
The auction was held from Jan 12 to 17 via the NFT1 Market, a Thailand-based marketplace for digital art and NFTs.
According to the co-founder of the now disbanded Future Forward Party, the first painting titled “When she opens the door” was inspired by Polish painter Damian Lechoszest. It is a painting of 23-year-old student activist Benja Apan opening a door and holding a lantern to chase the darkness away.
On Jan 14, the Criminal Court approved bail for the temporary release of the Thammasat University student charged with royal insult, so that she can continue her studies.
