Return to the Spirit of Cambodian Page

The Spirit of Cambodia shows on the faces of roller-skating children, in the beauty and pain depicted by today’s Cambodian artists, in the forgiveness expressed by Cambodian survivors of war.

We struggle to understand this spirit today when we see the haunted faces from the past...

The events of The Spirit of Cambodia... a Tribute, sponsored by Providence College, honor this Spirit.

Four Exhibitions:

Cambodian Artists
Diaspora
Cambodian Reflections
Family Artifacts

Top: Children of Tuol Sleng by Chath pierSath, acrylic on wood; Bottom: Children Skating at Independence Monument, Phnom Penh by Mak Remissa
