KHUAMMAK

Khuaamhak explores three different ways of questioning Lao culture.

At once a photo essay and an intimate journal, it examines the idea of dual culture: how traditions and religious ceremonies integrate into a Western world, as well as the unique connection between Lao people and the significance of religion.

But beyond all that, this book is a testament to the love I have for my culture, expressed through the members of my family and my country. Khuaamhak, or “the soul that loves.”
