Seine Kongruangkit — art director

about

— BIO

pronouned: sen

Named after the river in Paris, I was born and raised in Bangkok. My mom was a fortune teller, and my dad was a monk. While I developed an interest in the mystical world growing up, I somehow ended up making ads instead.

After spending a few years in Berlin and Miami, I’ve found myself working as a Senior Art Director in Chicago. Outside of my 9-to-5, I use my creativity to spotlight Asian culture, LGBTQ+ issues, and other causes I care about. My work has been exhibited in Berlin, Aalborg, Bangkok Design Week, and Miami Art Basel.

Oh, and I read tarot once in a while— guess I can call it a family business.
