Born and live in Myanmar, Khin Zaw Latt reflects on the ordinary scene of local commuters getting on the ferry after a long day of hard work.  The flow of the crowd seems to him a mass of one object which sends out a felling of oppression.  The more he observes the crowd, the more he notices the individuals; their hope and their beauty.  With dramatic rendering of stark light and shadow, Khin Zaw Latt portrays the mix emotions of tough lives and hope.

In his Buddha series, Khin Zaw Latt depicts the face of the lord Buddha as if he is a human being.  He is inspired by the story of the Buddha’s life, his strive to defy human’s desire and his teachings that still affect way of lives of millions.  He combines painterly wash with stamping technique and roller, creating serene and glorious impressions from a flat canvas.
