Mention Thailand's Deep South and people usually refer to the three southern border provinces -- Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat -- and four districts of Songkhla -- Chana, Thepha, Na Thawi and Saba Yoi. Also for many people, the Deep South can mean violence and insurgency.
To raise people's awareness as well as to create positive attitudes and understanding towards Thailand's southernmost areas, seven artists from the Deep South are now sending messages through their artworks now on view at VS Gallery.
