The study of “Guidelines for Creative Design of Display Props from Creative Dance of Naraphong Charassri’s Dance Exhibition” was creative research. The objective was to find ways to create the designs of display equipment for the creation of dance from the dance exhibition of Naraphong Charassri, which is part of a doctoral thesis study at the Faculty of Fine Arts, Chulalongkorn University. The research tools in this study included documentary data collection, media interviews, information observation, seminars, and personal experiences of researchers’ analysis conducted by content analysis, method analysis of the creation of dance works, including semiology, installation art, and 4 creative dance works of Naraphong Charassri, who developed a draft to be a guideline for creating further work.

            The results of the study found that ballerina shoes were used as semiology to express the images instead of signification to convey the journey, patience, fighting, concept, and installation art. When these were integrated with the display equipment positioned outside the performance area, it made the creative pieces more lively as part of the venue, complementing the performance in a site-specific way as well.

           The introduction of ballet shoes created from bamboo inserted into the exhibition the characteristics of the culture and way of life of Thai people, and it was able to reflect the identity of Naraphong Charassri very well. However, completeness of the props may have thwarted of the imagination of the audience. The creative artwork layout (installation art) with dance art should complement each other in terms of untility (function) to make this creation more interesting.
