‘Remembering’ Exhibition Revives Cham Culture Through Art

The 'Remembering' exhibition at Kiripost in Phnom Penh showcases contemporary artworks that revive and celebrate Cham culture, a minority ethnic group in Cambodia. The show features paintings, sculptures, and mixed-media pieces by local artists who draw on Cham traditions, textiles, and historical narratives to preserve and reinterpret their heritage.

This exhibition matters because it brings visibility to Cham culture, which has been historically marginalized and suffered during the Khmer Rouge era. By using art as a vehicle for cultural memory, the show fosters cross-cultural understanding and supports the ongoing effort to document and revitalize Cham identity in contemporary Cambodia.
