Artists
Nineteen artists, one coastline, two years.
Cambodian and international artists, filmmakers, photographers, writers, dancers and researchers who have worked in Kep, and the work they made here.
Art for Kep has hosted artists in Kep since January 2026. Some came for two weeks, some for two months. Between them they have photographed the villas of independence, worked with the crab-trap fishermen, danced with the tide, gathered a century of stories from the Gulf, and built textile figures that stood against the sea at Kep West.
Every artist keeps ownership of their work. Where work was made with named people from Kep, those people are credited too. Open a portrait on the Artist Residency page for full profiles and interviews.
