BLOWup Angkor is an outdoor photographic intervention which runs along side the 9th Angkor Photo Festival which brings exhibitions and projections to the street of Siem Reap Cambodia. Spread over the city the exhibitions explores the intersection between the street and photography. Here the rules of interaction are very different.

 The idea of photographs tuned for a powerful, responsible, democratic display, that is open to everybody on the streets.

This one will be like no other, and we hope for no shortage of things to do and see— we’re talking 35 exhibitions and street installations, 10 talks and projections, and 1 nighttime show and tell .

Now in its fourth year and BLOWup Angkor is brought to you by Blindboys.org and The Angkor Photo Festival.
