In the quiet north of Chiang Rai, where the air hums with memory and shadow, stands The Black House Museum, the unique brainchild of famed Thai artist Thawan Duchanee. This open-air gallery unfolds across tranquil gardens, where forty haunting structures rise like dark prayers. Within their walls, bones, taxidermy, and sacred art merge into a single, unsettling vision, a labyrinth of charred timber and silence, less a museum than a descent into the artist’s soul.

St Mary’s Church in Warwick, England, is a stunning example of medieval architecture with a history stretching back nearly 900 years. Founded in 1123AD by Roger de Beaumont, the 2nd Earl of Warwick, it was built on the site of an earlier Anglo-Saxon church and quickly became a powerful religious and political hub.
