Sok: Cultural Expressions of Laos and Cambodia
Date

Summary/Artist Statement
Sok' (translated to peace, love, and prosperity in Lao and Khmer) focuses on the art of weaving, with supporting prints highlighting auspicious motifs in Lao and Khmer culture. At a young age, my parents journeyed from Laos and Cambodia to America, escaping their war-torn homes in search of a better life. While the lands they left behind were devastated, the culture and spirit remained. To pay homage to their stories and contribute my own, Sok is a cultural expression of my family's native lands.

Designed for interiors, the collection includes hand woven and jacquard woven fabrics, a hand woven rug, and hand drawn prints.
