Syrian Artist Mohamad Hafez on Art, Exile and the Fall of Assad
Artist Mohamad Hafez creates replicas of Damascus, capturing the beauty and spirit of the city in intricate 3D models. Having lived in the U.S. since 2003, Hafez has channeled his homesickness and anguish over Syria's devastating civil war into his work. Now, with Bashar Al-Assad gone, Hafez joins the show to share his hopes for this moment, and to talk about how his art has helped him to adjust.
