About the Book
Innumerable villages line its course, becoming denser and more populous as the river finds its way through the rice plains. I took most of these photos in one such village, Kampong Chheuteul in the central province of Kampong Thom, where I conducted anthropological fieldwork from October 2005 to May 2006.
This is primarily a book of photographs depicting rice agriculture in Cambodia.
