It’s all coming together under the roof at Studio 7117 and from the forces above.
A new golden era, a renaissance.
When we first opened our doors at the beginning of the year, we brought in the monks from our home temple to pray over the space, our family, and our community. It’s been quite the journey as we’ve entered spring.
Join us us this Sunday for our KNY Golden Era Party and celebrate our beautiful community we’ve cultivated with the local Khmer artist diaspora.
There’s more to say, but you can just catch the vibe with us on Sunday. Bless!

Eternally grateful to be exhibiting work in Kbach Khmer: Mudras and Gestures to ring in Khmer new year! What a beautiful space to celebrate Khmer joy, connect with inter-generational community, and showcase artists + vendors + creatives + more! One million thank you's to the team at @studio.7117 for all their heart, soul, and dedication to put this exhibition together. Sousdey Chnam Tmey! 🪷💫🙏🏽

Took part in the second annual KNY celebration at @studio.7117 yesterday, I showed (and sold!) “Dropping The Flower.” I also coerced Aaliyah Uy @goodjobliyah to join me, showing her painting “tendril, leaf, fruit and flowers” that she was working on during the time I took her portrait for the collective. Would like to extend thank yous to Eazy Duz It CC for their time and energy.
Thank you to @sreydanyco for allowing me to take part in this modern take of Khmer New Year. I am excited to see where your practice takes you.

Hi friends!
I’m so honored to be part of the 2nd annual Khmer New Year exhibit at @studio.7117 . For my contribution, I’m highlighting 3 photos from my time in Srok Khmer in my ongoing project: The Living Time Capsule. I wanted to embed this collection with physical labor: the kind of quiet, repetitive effort that feels so familiar to our community, yet so often goes unseen. I’m quite enjoying the rhythmic labor of framing our history in the materials that sustain us.
Come through for the art, the music, and the intentionality of koun khmer. There are so many people contributing to this event!
📍 @studio.7117 | 117 Cherry St, Seattle
📅 April 26 | 1 PM - 5 PM
Handpoke 101 Workshop @studio.7117 !
This was the best way to end my work week in Washington. I get to create on and teach beautiful humans?! I’m so lucky. Forever grateful for this urban ashram. ‘Til next time WA! ✨
Thank you @n0tmilky for hosting. 🧡
this exhibition was for my little brother, issei, who would've turned 30 this spring equinox
i immortalize him through my deepest expressions and simple existence
