A Cuban artist examines her own exile

Available for over a year

After she moved to the US, the artist Maria Magdalena Campos-Pons couldn't return to Cuba for a long time. During that period of exile, she had a recurring dream about a train journey inside Cuba. When she finally returned to Cuba, the dream disappeared. Her latest project, ‘Alchemy of the Soul, Elixir for the Spirits’, explores this and many other themes.
