incognito

Painting, Portrait, Ink, 58x53cm
The Incognito series presents Cambodian women under an attractive, rich and complex aspect - at the same time global and particularly local. The Khmer society is traditionally constraining, with a constant control of the young people. When they move around town or elsewhere, one pays attention to one's clothing to avoid getting tanned, Asian society praise a clear complexion. All the protection clothes create unrecognizable individuals. This anonymity gives a feeling of freedom in the city, contrary of the Muslim countries where women are masked by tradition. Incognito depicts the Asian woman differently than an exotic and submitted object.
