“Echoes of Exile” Art Exhibit


  • 5 Juniper Lane Lititz, Pa. United States (map)

"Echoes of Exile: The Art of Home and Homeland"  is an evocative exhibition featuring the works of two Hispanic artists—Claudia Rojas from Cuba and Chomingo Rivas from El Salvador. This compelling collection explores the complex interplay of identity, displacement, and belonging. Through their vibrant and deeply personal art, both artists reflect on their respective journeys from their homelands to the United States, navigating the emotional terrain of exile, memory, and cultural transformation. 

Claudia Rojas' work pays homage to Cuba, capturing the rich culture and intangible essence of her homeland while grappling with the tension of leaving it behind. Chomingo Rivas, in turn, explores themes of identity and resilience through his depictions of characters from El Salvador. Both combine culture, identity, and the painful yet empowering experience of migration. Together, their works invite viewers to reflect on the universality of migration, the search for self in a new land, and the enduring echoes of home that reverberate across time and distance.

In "Echoes of Exile," these artists offer an intimate portrait of the diaspora experience—where home is not just a place but a shifting, evolving concept, woven together with threads of memory, hope, and the ongoing quest for belonging.
