Sentosa Mam is a Khmer artist working across textiles, painting, collage and re-exploring film and photography. Under their artist pseudonym twelvebytwelve, Mam’s work explores their synergetic "third-culture" identity, navigating life between Cambodia, Australia and most recently, Nepal. Mam's practice focuses on playing through self expression. Their depictions of thoughts and memories through their practices explores themes of identity, ideals in representations of beauty, traditional expectations and subverting paradigmatic "norms" and conditioned notions are embodied in her work. Mam creates a visionary world of bad-ass energy evocative of their freedom of expression that channels a voice deep in self-exploration, heritage, and feminist politics.
