Cement Art in Cambodia

Creating a cement artwork

Cement is very much in evidence in many parts of Asia, and not only for roads and sidewalks and buildings. The graphic arts are often expressed in cement figures and scenes and abstract designs such as this man is creating on the side of a public building in a park. The artisans here can create cement figures in three dimensions that I couldn't even sketch on paper.
