Hello I'm Sovannarith (Sov) Khem. Welcome to my portfolio. I graduated from the University of Washington Bothell with a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts. I minored in Creative Writing and Visual Media. I am a first generation Khmer American.
I am interested in visual communication, centering on minority representation. My focus is on analyzing the visual cues and tropes perpetuated by pop culture and mass media to oppress minorities. I've researched and curated work expanding on critical diversity: race, gender, class, sexuality, and culture. I wish to bring awareness to the complex ways society communicates through images, T.V. , movies, social media, and performance art. In an effort to contribute to minority voices I have created artifacts on my own identity in hopes of inspiring other men of color to express themselves creatively.
