Artist Statement:
My documentary photographic
work is primarily concerned
with contemporary social,
cultural and political matters
relating to Southeast Asia and
how this intersects with my
own personal history and
experiences. In 1989, in
China as part of a student
exchange program with Beijing
Teacher’s College, I
documented the Tian An Men
Square uprising. In
1992-1993, I retraced my steps
as a refugee in Cambodia. In
1994, an Arts
International/National
Endowment for the Arts grant
supported a second Cambodia
project in landmines. And in
1995-1997, I returned to
Southeast Asia to document
various aspects of Vietnamese,
Cambodian and Laotian social,
economic, and cultural
recovery from the effects of
war. ...
