The series of paintings in Seen and Unseen, Images of North Carolina Produce are meant to act as a trigger for raising questions about how our society functions. The juxtaposition of North Carolina produce with portraits of Hispanic Migrants offers a disrupt. The viewer is asked to notice and question how the images relate. Perhaps the viewer will see individuals, not an invisible group of transient unknowns. The subject matter is beautiful, palatable and something that we live with.
