A group exhibition that brings together 18 artists whose works confront the legacies of colonization, migration, and labor, stories that continue to shape Latinx life across generations.

Through painting, ceramics, photography, printmaking, collage, and installation, we draw from lived experience and inherited traditions.

Some reconnect with materials tied to ancestry, while others work with family archives, domestic spaces, or portraits of labor to honor the communities that raised us. Across our practices, land, body, and home emerge as interconnected sites of endurance, memory, and becoming.

In Siembra, materials become testimony, labor becomes love, and art becomes a way of planting what we hope will grow next.

This part of the exhibition moves through a dreamlike space where memories feel close and far at the same time. The artwork shows pieces of the places we come from—colors, textures, and scenes that stay with us even after we leave. Here, home becomes something we remember and imagine, shaped by both distance and longing.

As these memories gather, we reach a turning point: the moment someone leaves one place for another. The works here show what it feels like to migrate, whether as a child or an adult—carrying hopes, fears, and questions about the future. Migration creates a “before” and an “after,” and it changes the way we understand ourselves.

In these pieces, moments of care, quiet struggles, and the effort of starting over help show the emotional weight of that journey. Together, they remind us that moving to a new place is more than a change of location—it’s a moment of becoming, shaped by the parts of home we carry with us.
