The Otis Philbrick Memorial Prize Collection: The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA, selected by Curators Edward Saywell and Patrick Murphy Carlos Barberena, Strawberry Fields, linocut, 2020. "...Other artists concentrate on the dehumanization and violence in American labor economies, especially as experienced by undocumented immigrants. In a manner similar to some of the artists just mentioned, Carlos Barberena (Strawberry Fields) pairs a florid, 18th-century style frame with an explicit caption (“Essential: For your colonizer comfort”) to link past and contemporary exploitations." - Elizabeth M.

Closest to me are ways migrants’ humanity—our memories, attachments, relationships and traumas— is swept aside leaving visible only our work value. In these prints, I honor the farmworkers, most undocumented, whom the US population & Federal government labeled “Essential” in the context of COVID, a so-called honor for their centrality to the food system, while doing little to alleviate their lack of basic rights and vulnerability to exploitation and imminent deportation".
