The artist extracted a single page from Archaeology of Nakhon Ratchasima, a March 1969 publication by Silpakorn University’s Faculty of Archaeology. The page features a photograph of a 1,300-year-old fragmented sandstone foot, excavated at Dhammachaksemaram Temple in Sung Noen, Nakhon Ratchasima. Upon its discovery, the excavation team debated whether the complete Buddha image was originally standing or reclining, eventually concluding that the foot belonged to a reclining figure.
