Kanrapee Chokpaiboon was born and raised in Chiang Mai, Thailand. His work is mainly inspired by his love for sci-fi films, extraterrestrial beings, and spirituality.  He journeyed to New York in 2015, there, Kanrapee got the opportunity to learn and work for various renowned photographers who influenced him, widened his perspectives, and finally discovered what photography is to him. His style is defined by dramatized reality, creating the feel of surrealism, quirkiness, and dark humor, forming an alternate reality he sees through his eyes.

He is a co-founder of Arc Tribe, a digital magazine, and Arc Press, an independent publisher.
