The inagural Angkor Wat project saw over 120 students creatively engage in this uniquw UNESCO temple complex as an icon, a piece of architecture, a symbol of narratives and culture, and a crucible of mythology and history. Over 50 works were presented in the final exhibition, with 4 interdisciplinary groups in addition to individuals and team efforts from 7 programmes across NAFA. Also, on opening, 8 performances heralded the outcome of this ambitious, academy-wide project.

​

The works and performances discourse reflections in depth-mining the meanings and values behind what they see and have learnt, into things they might discover, as they see and have learnt, into things they might discover, as they might make their viewer or audience discover, through the presentation of their work. 

​

Light installations, refer to the surroundings, not to themselves; visual designs are phenomena captured, purposely in relexivity, returning us to a space of retelling and replaying; performances are a collective expression of time and space.
