His work often reflects his multicultural experiences, visual colloquialisms, and unique perspectives in order to pass it down to the next generation of Khmer creatives around the world. Sokai seeks to bridge Khmer communities around the United States through creative collaboration and building relationships to empower local Khmer groups and uplift them towards an international scale.
