Description
This gallery, located opposite the Royal Palace, shows original paintings by the Phnom Penh artist Asasax. The artist's style incorporates contemporary western and traditional Khmer techniques to produce colorful and intricate depictions of Cambodian landmarks such as Ankor Wat. Emphasizing the vibrancy of his images, Asasax explains that color is 'necessary for human life' as 'without color, people die.' The gallery also has a small collection of locally made silver jewelry.
