Dear Art lovers,

please be invited to the
contemporary art exhibition opening of
GLOBAL HYBRID this evening

Tuesday, July 20, from 6PM,
at Meta House.

This international exhibition project highlights Cambodian based
artists and U.S. based artists, who fuse both eastern and western
notions to maintain a distinct vision within his or her media and
series of work.

Linda Saphan, Phung Huynh, Aragna Ker, Sayon Syprasoeuth, Tom Tor,
Denise A. Scott and Thien Thach reveal a broaden viewpoint of what
truly is Global Hybrid.

Saphan's Incognito series of ink and rice paper drawings
re-contextualize the significance of the krama for women in today's
society, while Ker's collages rekindles our childhood's memories of
superheroes. Syprasoeuth's latest videos juxtaposes traditional
Apsara dancers along with its androgynous troupe members which is set
to classical music and Dengue Fever songs. Thach's video, Mariasia,
is a surreal depiction of a Khmer singer, who falls in love with
Mexican Mariachi music …

Also featured are new works by Cambodian painter Vann Nath and
sculptor Kong Channa.

We hope to see you tonite,
all the best, Nico Mesterharm
(Director)
