I met Charles Fox through a series of strange coincidences during the covid lockdown, and discovered a shared love of Cambodia. Years later, we find ourselves the recipients of an Arts and Humanities Research Council Curiosity Award to do some work combining phenomenological philosophy and photography with contemporary Cambodian art to understand Cambodian post-genocide experiences. The project starts in June 2026, and initially runs for two years. We will be working with Bloc Projects (Sheffield), Holocaust Centre North (Huddersfield), and META House (Phnom Penh).
