Shifting Landscapes
—
Shifting Landscapes reflects on the subtle movements that shape Cambodia’s terrain and the layers of experience embedded within it. Boundaries shift, seasons change, and gradual transformations accumulate over time.
The exhibition approaches landscape not as a passive backdrop but as a living presence shaped by memory, ancestry, and spiritual significance. The land becomes a record of what has been witnessed and experienced.
Across the works, layered surfaces and material processes respond to these quiet changes. Earth pigments, oil paint, and textured compositions suggest the ways landscape and memory evolve through time.
Themes of ecology, ritual, and belonging run throughout the exhibition. The terrain appears as something active and responsive, shaped by forces that are environmental, historical, and emotional.
