What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise Phuket Art Village Rawai for its unique artistic offerings, particularly the creative use of recycled materials and the charming atmosphere of studios like The Love Art Studio. The nearby Rabbit Hole cafe is a hit with families. Some find the area quieter than other Phuket spots, which can be a pro or con depending on preference.
"I met wonderful artists there and some of them were creating art while I was wandering around. The artists live and create here. From a girl who was painting some Parisian street, I got to know that three artists are currently living here. I talked to one of them. His name was Pui, he was one of the founders of that place back then in 2011. He is from Chiang Mai originally, graduated from Bangkok university, and after that got scholarship in Japan to learn about peculiar technique of mezzotint. Mezzotint is a printmaking process that produce a matrix by roughening a metal plate with thousands of little dots made by a metal tool with small teeth, called a "rocker". Pui showed me his house and his works, also made me a tea. He said that he built it out of wooden boats that were destroyed by Tsunami in 2004. That’s why every piece here has a different color, it’s because it originates from a fisherman boat color - explains the author. By the way, his house is also a small cafe where he serves himself. You can buy tea, coffee, pastries and, of course, his artworks.
Wonderful atmosphere and definitely worth visiting while you are in Phuket."
