SUMMARY:ព្រៃស Prey Sar
DESCRIPTION:Film and performance by Shanghai Chang\n6:30pm Tuesday\, 7 February 2023\nJava Creative Café Toul Tom Poung\nWARNING: contains graphic scenes and may not be appropriate for sensitive viewers \nPrey Sar is an experimental film and live performance by Shanghai Chang presented by the Creative Generation Performance Series. Shanghai’s work explores themes of sexuality\, self-harm\, violence and drug use through carefully constructed scenes. Influenced by Italian horror cinema\, he skillfully uses color to transform a moment of brutality into one of beauty. As viewers we are equally attracted and repulsed by what we see. \nShanghai is a multi-disciplinary artist and is interested in producing work that pushes boundaries and is sometimes confrontational. He feels that it is unnatural if art doesn’t explore difficult topics that for him are a part of his everyday reality. \nFor this event Shanghai has produced a new sound piece and live performance that will follow the film screening. The audience is invited to stay for a q&a with the artist at the end of the program. \n_____ \nSHANGHAI CHANG (b. 1996\, Phnom Penh Cambodia) has a Bachelor of Arts in Fashion Design and Photography. He is a co-founder of the HOMELESS Artist Collective. His art practice includes Conceptual Fashion\, Visual art\, Installation\, Photography\, Film and Video Art.

The canopy will provide a temporary space in the courtyard inviting the public to enjoy events and community gatherings under its dappled shade and innovative design. \nJoin him for the designer talk and learn more about what inspired him and what were some of his challenges and rewards for this project!

SUMMARY:By a Thread Closing Performance
DESCRIPTION:A collaboration between Jean-Baptiste PHOU & SAO SreymaoCurated by Dana LANGLOIS \n\n\n\n27 November 2022● 6pm: Film screening● 6:30pm: Artist talk with SAO Sreymao and Jean-Baptiste PHOU● 7:30pm: Closing performance by SAO Sreymao and Jean-Baptiste PHOUJava Creative Cafe Toul Tom Poung53 Street 468\, Phnom Penh \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy a Thread is an exhibition of film\, photography\, installation and performance by artists Jean-Baptiste PHOU & SAO Sreymao that empathetically explores communication and grief. \n\n\n\nThe whole exhibition revolves around the film\, My Mother’s Tongue which tells the story of a mother and son who don’t speak the same language\, until something unlocks when she suddenly falls very ill. The emotional journey unfolds through a series of vignettes that draw the viewer deeper into the inner world of a son seeking understanding and to be understood. The work is very personal and at the same time part of the universal human experience. \n\n\n\nThe images from the film combining photography and digital drawing will be printed and form the central work of the exhibition. The audience will be invited to participate in communal grieving through a sculpture created by SAO Sreymao. They will be able to write their own messages and hang them to the installation. On the final day of the exhibition\, viewers may join the artists while they perform a ritual cleansing to bring relief and shared comfort. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition is especially poignant at a time when the world is entering a post-covid phase in which many of us are left with our loss and memories. The body of work is emotionally intelligent\, poetic and has been created with great sensitivity. Through a series of images and quiet actions\, it creates space for connection and understanding\, leaving us with the feeling that we are not alone. \n\n\n\nThe program will start with an opening event\, run for one month with daily film screenings and conclude with a live performance. Additionally\, Jean-Baptiste PHOU has created a participatory digital installation that allows people from around the world to share their own stories. It can be accessed at echoesfromthestars.com. \n\n\n\n_____ \n\n\n\nBy a Thread is presented as part of the Creative Generation Performance series and Photo Phnom Penh\, with the support of Debra Fram + Eric Schwartz and l’Institut Français du Cambodge.
