"Hope on the Horizon"
Open Studio Cambodia is an artist collective working out of Siem Reap, Cambodia, the gateway to the ancient temples of Angkor Wat. Founded in 2018, Open Studio Cambodia mentors, represents, and provides supplies and communal studio space to its members, most of whom are emerging contemporary Cambodian artists.
We believe in the power of art not only to enhance the lives of the artists we work with, but as an important platform to share the stories that define all of us. In this challenging year we have remained steadfast in our commitment to our artistic practice and supportive communal studio environment, and adaptive to the changes all around us.
Our January 2021 showcase, “Hope on the Horizon” includes new works in oil, acrylic, hand-cut paper, digital photography/mixed media, textile, watercolor, and wood sculpture. This is the first time all nine members of our arts collective have exhibited together and we are pleased to do so at the AIR Gallery at Factory Phnom Penh, powered by FT Gallery.
