The exhibition Unpacked: Refugee Baggage is in the Christian Petersen Art Museum, Morrill Hall, September 4-October 19.
Each miniaturized recreation of a moment in time or memory is placed within a suitcase and accompanied by a recording of the refugee's story told in his or her own words. Through art Hafez hopes to humanize the refugees' plight as they attempt to forge new lives in a world so unlike their own.
