NYAB Event - Chath pierSath “I’m Here”

Chath pierSath “I’m Here”

Tally Beck Contemporary Gallery

This event has ended.

I’m Here, Chath pierSath’s solo ex­hi­bi­tion, will be on display at Tally Beck Contemporary.

Chath pierSath is a Cambodian artist, poet and humanitarian. He lost much of his family during the Khmer Rouge regime and was forced into a labor camp as a child before fleeing to Thailand in 1979. In 1981, he im­mi­grat­ed to the United States. He later earned in his BA at World College West in international service and de­ve­lop­ment.

PierSath works mainly with painting and collage and frequently experiments with media, often repurposing and re­cy­cling materials such as wooden slats and roof shingles. His paintings are deeply expressionistic and seem to attempt to reconcile haunting me­mor­ies of his childhood with his life in the United States and humanitarian work in Cambodia.
