Htet T. San is a Myanmar-born artist based in New York City. Htet works with mixed media art, photography, and installation. Her work explores ideas of identity, existence, memories, nostalgia, societal problems and human experience in a meditative and contemplative manner. Recently, she has been combining the mixed media concepts of installation, video projections, and sculptural/material mediums with traditional darkroom and digital imaging techniques.

Education

Htet studied Art Studio with Concentration in Photography at University of Alabama-Huntsville and have a Master degree of Arts in Photography at Falmouth University, UK . She also occasionally takes classes at School of Visual Arts, Penumbra Foundation, Harvard University and various institutions for advanced research in photography and mixed media studies.
