This exhibition has a very important purpose for the Stiev Selapak art group. Their aim is to raise money in order to buy cameras for those who do not own one.
Men Thoamada exhibition represents themselves as an independent art group: unusual in their conception of art and their vision of being artist in today's Cambodia. They will exhibit new art works from photography to painting and assemblage. Gasolina and Linda will not take commission to support this local initiative.

According to the Buddhist canonical texts, with the body comes suffering. Does this ancient precept have a vibration within the actual society such as one has to suffer to be beautiful? A group of artists from different origins (Khmer, American, Australian, Belgian, Chinese, Dutch, French), various disciplines (drawing, installation, mask, painting, photography, sculpture, and video art) are going to give a new depth and particular feeling to this old saying. This exhibition allows artists to meet, to stretch their network and knowledge of the artistic community.
