Many years ago, my mom created this textile sculpture as an homage to César Chávez . She included a wooden harvesting tray, part of a grapevine, a bunch of grapes she made from clay and a hook knife that my grandfather used when he was a migrant farm worker working in the vineyards. She called it the Battle of the Grapes. Today this piece was part of an art exhibit at JFK University as part of a César Chávez Commemoration. César Chávezs grandson was able to view the exhibit, including my moms artwork. She would be so pleased.
