Montika Kham-on is an artist and filmmaker working between Berlin and Bangkok. She explores her practice across various mediums including video, performance, installation, and sculpture. Her work investigates collective fear, speculative futures, and the struggle over definitions outside dominant narratives, centering emotional landscapes and embodied knowledge. Her works question traditional cinematic structures, developing post-tropical forms of thinking and acting that redefine emancipatory imagination and anticipate liberated futures.
Her recent works have been presented in exhibitions and screening programs across Asia and Europe, including Transmediale Berlin and ArtScience Museum Singapore. Her recent work, Afterlives (2025), imagines a post-tropical future and was commissioned by GHOST:2568. Beyond her video practice, Kham-on founded Phimailongweek, a site-specific art festival supporting emerging artists through experimental, context-responsive practices. She is the recipient of a DAAD scholarship (Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst) and is pursuing a Master’s degree at the Berlin University of the Arts (Universität der Künste Berlin).
