» In the southwest of Phnom Penh lies the region's largest surviving rainforest. After landing, I met other travel companions to spend three nights together at a riverside camp.

In more or less two hours, we arrived at the camp depot.

His "outsider art" exudes a fauvist style, bursting with bold colours, delightful forms and humorous undercurrents through mixed mediums and techniques from watercolours to collage.
