August 13 - September 10, 2021
From the Goldmark Cultural Center:
“The Goldmark Cultural Center’s Norman Brown Gallery is proud to present They Didn’t Know We Were Seeds, an exhibition of new works by Tina Medina, including interwoven mixed media, photographic, and fiber pieces, exploring the contributions of families to the development of American land, economy, and culture. The expression, “They tried to bury us. They didn’t know we were seeds.”, mostly used as an activist cry, expresses the feelings of black and brown families whose physical hard labor of the past and today continues to be overlooked as the roots of the success of our country. The seeds planted were not only those for produce, but also were seeds of hopes and dreams for families to make a better life in the U.S. Those families’ next generations of children grew up as citizens of the country who continue to contribute on various levels to the economy, culture and identity of the U.S.”
