See stories of bravery and transformation brought to life on a virtual 3-D tour of the portrait series Chrysalis.

On Thursday, May 14, 2020, Curator Dr. Marika Sardar led #MuseumWithoutWalls visitors on a live video walk-through of the exhibition. Chrysalis, by Greek artist and photographer Olga Stefatou, introduces viewers to 11 women who fled their countries in search of a better life. Each woman's story is different, owing to the unique forces that caused her to uproot her life, flee to Greece, and eventually cross paths with Stefatou.

On the tour, Dr. Sardar shared stories of some of the courageous women who participated in Stefatou's project. She also spoke to what motivated her to want to bring Chrysalis to the Museum.
