Refugee Family's New Dawn
Masri Family
The Story Behind The Art
At dawn aboard the Staten Island Ferry, the Al-Masris' first view of Lady Liberty shows tearful parents clutching their children. Their battered suitcase bears entry stamps from Turkey, Greece, and Germany. The son's pointing finger aligns with the statue's torch, while the daughter's doll wears a dress pattern matching the family's bombed Damascus home tiles.
