Painter at work at Artisans d'Angkor, Siem Reap, Cambodia. Handicraft's Workshop. Siem Reap. Cambodia. Artisans Angkor was created in 1999 to help young people find work in their home villages, allowing them to practice their crafts while providing them with a vocation. It was created as part of a three-year project to integrate young artisans trained by the Chantiers-Ecoles de Formation Professionnelle - whose objective is to revive traditional craft skills (stone carving, wood carving, lacquering, gilding and silk processing) placing a strong emphasis on the authenticity of its products to the Khmer culture.
