Captured by Boogie, one of the most influential photographers of street culture in the new millennium, these edgy and gritty–albeit stunning–images reveal and document the darker side of Bangkok, Thailand. Coupled with an introduction by Tracy Quan, the photography in Persona Non Grata is certain to ignite reader’s drive to take a trip to Thailand this Spring/Summer.

What comes to mind when you think of Thailand? For many, it's the Land of Smiles, but that couldn't be further from the truth, at least when you take the time to scratch beneath the surface. - Boogie

After extensive research, the acclaimed street photographer took ten long trips to the country, where he quickly immersed himself in the underbelly of its street culture. Documenting daily life in Thailand's bustling capital, Bangkok, Boogie's camera uncovers with his raw aesthetic the bleak reality, an often unseen side of its ever-smiling inhabitants. This is the latest installment in a photography icon's lifelong exploration of humanity.
