Part of the artist's "Balseros" series, this dynamic composition portrays members of her own family leaving Cuba by sea. The boat serves as a powerful symbol of both physical and emotional passage, carrying themes of fear, hope, and resilience across uncertain waters. The work features expressive, elongated figures and vibrant colors, with a small religious icon at the bow and a paper boat in the foreground, honoring the courage and unity of families facing displacement.
