About Artist

Loren Byers

I am a photographer living in Thailand, where I have lived for the last seven years. The main focus of my photography is of Buddhist ideas as expressed in Thai temples, though surrounded by such visual richness, I am drawn to other subjects as well. I work with both digital and analog techniques. My photographs were featured in a solo exhibition at the Monochrome Gallery in Bangkok in April 2025 and have received international awards. My photobook, Come and See, was featured as a recommended book of the Boulder Bookstore in 2025. I am currently working with the Museum of Wat Bowonniwet Vihara temple in Bangkok to create and present a photographic perspective of the museum's acquisitions.
