Yim Maline's current work - No Name - has expanded her practice from finely-skilled drawing and sculpture to video and sound installation. Her subject which is usually driven by personal childhood memory has stretched to a current global theme of universal destruction. Curator Vuth Lyno will engage Yim in a conversation about her inspirations, the choice of media behind this work, and the transition of Yim's practice.

No Name is presented by SA SA BASSAC in collaboration with the Cambodian Youth Arts Festival 2012.
