In The Body Craves Impact as Love Bursts, images of a man and woman are shown facing each other, yet separated. It was made in solidarity with the rapper Elevenfinger, who was jailed for possession of ping-pong bombs used in anti-government protests. The video ends dramatically with flashing images and footage of fireworks, filmed at Thalugaz protests in 2021.
The Body Craves Impact as Love Bursts was first shown as a video installation at the Procession of Dystopia exhibition last year. It has also been screened at The 7th Bangkok Experimental Film Festival (เทศกาลหนังทดลองกรุงเทพฯ ครั้งที่ 7) and Can’t Stop Won’t Stop.
