Prach is a visual artist who has become part of the community movements through creating De’ Lapae Art Space in Narathiwat, Thailand in 2015 and founded the group of Satu ≠ Padu Collaborative in 2021 to exhibit as part of the Bangkok Art Biennale 2022. Moreover, in 2009, Prach graduated with a bachelor's degree in visual arts in Pattani and studied wood sculpture and had a short-term exhibition at The Art Students League of New York in 2012.

Prach is a visual artist who often takes part in community movements and focuses on the Malay historical route. He presents a fictional image of a safe space through mixed media and fabric sculptures, made from waste materials with the PATANI locals. He is also interested in the process of presenting historical stories to present his work through collected objects and finishing materials through field exploration with experience and the various memories of people in the past to the immigration that has resulted to the present, such as “the FROZEN” Sean Seap curated by Penwadee Nopaket Manont at SAC Gallery Bangkok 2024, Orang Siyae/ Oghae Nayu curated by Penwadee Nopaket Manont at Art4c, and Gallery and Creative Learning Space.
