One of the millions of victims of the Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia from 1975-1979.
The skull was one of 9000 skulls displayed at a stupa (memorial) at the Choung Ek killing fields outside Phnom Penh.
One of the strongest most memorable moments of my round the world trip!

This is a BIG piece I did with a friend of mine on the outside of a hall full of tennis courts!
The first square of the wall is aprox 6x6 meter and the stencil about 5x5 meters! And the uneven wall was a b**ch to paint on!
