Behind the Scenes at the John Thomson Exhibition [recorded on Facebook Live]

We were live at the Brunei Gallery as the exhibition team worked to install the photos ready for the opening next week. Videoblogger Yang-May Ooi talks to Narisa Chakrabongse and Paisarn Piammattawat about Thomson’s photos of Siam and chat to Betty Yao about the layout of the China section of the exhibition.
