The Rise: Exhibition by Theanly Chov
August 3, 2023 - August 31, 2023
FreeSra’Art Gallery is showcasing the work of one of Cambodian artist Theanly Chov, who draws inspiration from Soviet propaganda imagery, 19th-century Russian painting, and Khmer artist Neak Dhim.

His paintings capture the struggle and difficulty of realizing oneself in a society driven by opportunity and upward mobility. Despite these themes, his artwork is imbued with optimism and harmony.
