Sovanchandy Mao
Artist based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia
I am a graduate architect, photographer, and artist whose work explores social structures and norms from her self-reflection and experiences. I find inspiration from the surrounding environment of the fast-growing context of Phnom Penh, which is full of architectural historical, and cultural values. I often experiment with different conceptual photography that tells a story and evokes further discussion. I believe in the arts that express imagination to create reflections, trigger thoughts, and build potential reimagination from a different perspective.
