McDermott Gallery
Business Overview
FCC ComplexPokambor Avenue, Siem Reap, Cambodia
Originally a native of Little Rock, Arkansas, in the U.S., McDermott had worked in editorial and commercial studio photography for several years in America. After a brief hiatus working in the feature film industry in Los Angeles, he arrived in Asia in 1993 to take a magazine job in Bangkok, and fell in love with the culture and the continent.
In addition to his Angkor work, McDermott has continued his fine art project throughout Southeast Asia, focusing on ancient temples and cultural heritage sites. His travels have taken him to Burma, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam as he photographs sacred sites and the living culture that surrounds them. He now lives with his wife and young son in Siem Reap, Cambodia, where he founded three galleries that exhibit the work of Cambodian artists and photographers working across Asia.
