Lady Penh: What to do in Phnom Penh

(Tith Narith)

Phnom Penh Mutations

Anna Katharina Scheidegger, a prolific artist who you cannot classify, and the four young Cambodian photographers she followed during one year in their work on progress, have transformed the exhibition hall of the Bophana Centre. The pictures run on the walls like a giant panoramic. Here Pha Lina has composed his own city with the pictures he took in the streets of Phnom Penh. Lim Sokchanlina has a more conceptual view, he shows the metal and colourful shelters which hide the architectural changings of the city and asks the visitor to imagine what is behind. Tith Narith who used for the first time a camera during this workshop offers photographs full of life that he made in Borei Keila with the commitment of an archivist. He is a revelation. Prum Seila made a great video and photographs compilation where unknown Cambodians interviewed in the streets for instance talk about Phnom Penh evolution.

This exhibition is a refreshing look from Cambodians on the mutations of their capital. Let’s hope that it is the beginning of a large reflexion on urbanism and architecture.
