Empowering Roots: Kim Hak's Alive IV Exhibition Connects Cambodian Heritage Across Generations in Japan and Cambodia
15 April 2024Last year, Rei Foundation was proud to support two exhibitions of acclaimed Cambodian artist Kim Hak’s Alive IV, the latest in a series of works in his Alive series, in Yokohama and Phnom Penh.
Hak was born in Northeast Cambodia, two years after the Khmer Rouge fell from power. After spending years listening to his parents' experiences of that turbulent time, Hak started a photographic art project, Alive, in 2014, collecting and preserving stories of survivors of the Khmer Rouge period through both text and striking photographic images. Alive appealed to Rei Foundation because of the powerful community-building potential of the project as well as Hak’s singular talent.
