Narsiso Martinez’s art practice, drawing upon his own experience as a farmworker, honors the people performing the essential labor required to fill produce sections and restaurant kitchens around the country through portraiture on discarded materials, such as cardboard boxes and paper grocery bags. Best Used By highlights timely issues regarding worker invisibility and anonymity. As part of his project, Martinez will be researching archives related to regional agricultural history and engaging with local food service workers.
