Born to Cambodian parents who fled the Khmer Rouge genocide, Andrew Hem grew up between the cultural traditions of his Khmer heritage and the urban landscape of Los Angeles. Drawn to graffiti from a young age, he developed a strong sense of composition and visual storytelling before earning a BFA in Illustration from the ArtCenter College of Design in 2006.
Working across gouache, oil and acrylic, Hem creates atmospheric paintings that blend memory, dreams and cultural narratives through richly textured surfaces and luminous colour palettes. His work has been exhibited internationally in solo shows across London, Paris, New York and Los Angeles, establishing him as a distinctive contemporary painter known for evocative, spirit-infused imagery.

Popcorn and cascade bidding:
If a bid is placed during the last 1 minute of the auction, the closing time will be automatically extended for an additional 1 minute from the time the last bid was placed. The item will close once all bidding activity has stopped. This is recommended for high-value and popular items. Popcorn bidding prevents bidders from waiting until the last minute to bid without giving the bidders who were outbid an opportunity to rebid.
Cascade bidding ensures auction lots close at staggering times, one after another. For example, the first lot of an auction might close at 12:01pm, the second lot would close at 12:02pm, then the third lot at 12:03pm, etc.
