Tut is an accomplished carver who took up his craft after stumbling upon a landmine while he was enlisted in the Cambodian Army. Sculpting with wood is a process that requires patience, focus, and the innate ability to sense the latent form within the timber block. Tut’s method and sensibility has been over a decade in the making and his understanding of the varieties, personalities, and subtleties of each wood (jack fruit, rosewood, and sweet basil) is evident in every unique piece. Selling his artworks at GFTV and on the street provides Tut with a living wage to support his family.
Helping others
Tut has participated in the 10K wheelchair event at the Angkor Wat 1/2 Marathon on a number of occasions and also helps people with disabilities in his community. Vertical Divider
