El Color Del Espíritu
I have worked for someone for most of my career, but I also enjoy creating my own projects. The inspiration of Mexican artist Karima Muyaes’ authentic body of work led to a book collaboration. Her work is about life and creation, but has a conceptual range from fantasy to reality. Her language of forms is infused so deeply with her ethnicity it is presented in a profoundly personal way. This book presents nearly 350 colorful and innovative works, and showcases her figurative and expressionistic art as it has unfolded over the past three decades.
Dear Cambodia
Photographer Mat Roe’s many journeys to Cambodia serve as evidence to the uniqueness of the country and its people. I come from a compassionate perspective, and understood the people of Cambodia come from a place of trauma. I could relate to Mat’s photography because it retained the dignity of the people of Southeast Asia. His images include unique monuments, spectacular views of the countryside, fascinating landscapes, details of city and daily life that few have ever seen, as well as the legacy of the Khmer Rouge. Accompanying the book release was a poster exhibition shown at Cambodian Centers in North America & Asia.
