Laura Melnick’s Seed Art successfully and sneakily addresses injustices of American politics that many have become desensitized too. It is seeds and children’s books that call out polarized political issues at the Minnesota State Fair.  The placement of her work is intrinsically democratic because of the wide range of people that come in contact with her work. The Minnesota state fair is highly attended, being the 2nd highest attended state fair in the country, by people with a wide range of political views and backgrounds. Additionally, Melnick’s seed art also all reference and use imagery from famous Children’s books.  This makes her work initially seem innocent when in actuality the messages are very politically pointed, such as Curious George Looks for Weapons of Mass Destruction. In such a polarized nation it can often times be difficult to make people question and expose political problems, but Melnick’s work does just that.
