Cambodian Rock

Linda Saphan — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 00:00:19 +0000

I am now working on the documentary film directed by John Pirozzi (www.johnpirozzi.com) “Don’t Think I’ve Forgotten”.

“During the 60’s and early 70’s, as the war in Vietnam threatened its borders, a new music scene emerged in Cambodia that took Western rock and roll and stood it on its head-creating a sound like no other. This documentary film, “Don’t Think I’ve Forgotten,” provides a new perspective on a country usually associated with war and genocide. By celebrating this powerful music, and the people who created it, Cambodia’s musical heyday emerges from the shadows of tragedy into the light of history.”

anthropology research evaluation

Linda Saphan — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 07:02:10 +0000

From December 2007 to January 2008

I am working for Domrei Consulting and Research as anthropologist consultant. The work is located in the urban and peri urban area of Phnom Penh. It is analysing relocated families’ intergration at the new site, in the new community. Interviewing social workers and field workers is certainly an inspiring lesson. Ke Bopha, my research assistant is simply brilliant - quick learner, smart and helpfull. It is so nice to be well assisted, thank you Bopha.

Thursday November 29th 2007

17 artists exhibiting at the department of plastic arts of the ministry of culture. 5 Khmer artists and 12 international artists coming together to produce a series of works on the theme : with a body comes suffering. The crowd was overwhelming but the greatest success story is not about the sale, not about the many hundred people but about the khmer artists who exhibited the first time their works. The Selapak Neari were on a magic cloud that night. Veasna and Kanitha’s mother was so proud of her daughters who proved her right to keep on supporting them to follow their dreams. What more moving that to see these artists shine like stars!

Thank you to the people of the department of plastic arts specifically Suos Sodavy and to the international artists who helped to pay for the exhibition’s expense. But the most important of all is to ANA (Arts Network Asia) who made it possible that these Khmer artists could come together meet, work and connect with other artists.
