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 to analyze the visual cues and tropes perpetuated by pop culture and mass media to oppress marginalized groups. I've researched and curated work expanding on critical diversity inlcuding race, gender, class, sexuality, and culture. I wish to bring awareness to the complex ways society communicates through imagery, television, movies, social media, and performance art. In an effort to contribute to honoring representation and underrepresented voices. I have created artifacts on my own identity in hopes of inspiring other people of color to express themselves creatively, whether through their experiences or trauma, as a member of our American society.
