Utilizing a diverse array of sounds and images, Sakpisit creates immersive experiences that challenge conventional narratives and provoke thought. His feature-length film The Edge of Daybreak garnered acclaim, winning the FIPRESCI award at the International Film Festival Rotterdam for its for its “Mysterious atmosphere and rich imagery in depicting trauma and violence, for its capacity of dealing with 40 years of political turmoil through a powerful and hypnotic cinematic journey, and for its compromise with the past in order to confront the present and the next future.” His recent works have been showcased at the 14th Gwangju Biennale, the Museum of Contemporary Art Busan, the 2024 Bangkok Art Biennale, and the 14th Mercosur Biennial.
