We are excited to present our 2019 keynote speaker, Mohamed Hafez. With a background in architecture and a deep understanding of displacement and war, Hafez creates photo-realistic, sculptures of the urban landscape of the Middle East. His most famous project, Unpacked: Refugee Baggage, aims to amplify refugee voices by creating miniature replicas of homes, communities, and countries, that have been devastated by war and political unrest.
