Ep.78 | Cambodian artist Vuth Lyno on Spirit Houses, Sa Sa Art Projects, and on his rainbow machine maker.

In today’s episode I have the pleasure of talking with Vuth Lyno, a Cambodian-based artist, curator, and educator. From his studio in Phnom Penh, we delved into his work Spirit Houses, spirituality in Cambodia, and his rainbow machine maker. Vuth Lyno also talked about his collective Sa Sa Art Projects and the role of placemaking in his work. Vuth Lyno is an artist, curator, and educator interested in space, cultural history, and knowledge production. His artworks often engage with micro and overlooked histories, notions of community, place-making, and the production of social relations. He works across various media, including photography, video, sculpture, light, and sound, often constructing spatial and architectural bodies as situations for interaction. He introduces human stories and knowledge within these installations by drawing on a wide range of materials such as original interviews, artifacts, and newly made objects. Lyno is also a member of Stiev Selapak collective which founded and co-runs Sa Sa Art Projects, a long-term initiative committed to the development of contemporary visual arts landscape in Cambodia. Lyno has presented his artworks in Cambodian and international venues such as the Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art, Biennale of Sydney, Singapore International Festival of Arts, and Gwangju Biennale. His artworks have appeared at institutions such as the Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei; Gallery of Modern Art, Brisbane; Metropolitan Museum of Manila; the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney; the National Gallery of Indonesia, Jakarta; Centre for Contemporary Art Ujazdowski Castle, Warsaw; Guangdong Times Museum, Guangzhou; Osage Gallery, Hong Kong; and Chiang Mai City Arts & Cultural Centre. Lyno holds a Master of Art History from the State University of New York, Binghamton, New York, a Fulbright Fellowship (2013-15), and a Master of International Development from RMIT University, Melbourne, supported by the Australian Endeavour Award (2008-2009).
