upon Chiang Mai's iconic Wat Umong as inspiration: a forest temple known for its unique tunnels and meditation spaces, while also referencing Chiang Mai's ancient walled city; guests have a choice of chic and well - appointed rooms and suites each boasting subtle Thai décor touches and red brick walls to reflect the Lanna

Influenced by the events of the Arab Spring, the artist, who was born in 1970 in Addis - Ababa and works in New York, has again filled huge canvases with skeins
upon skeins of
