The monarch butterfly migration across the continent provides an invaluable service, essential for many ecosystems to thrive. It is thanks to these pollinators, as well as bees and other insects, that we have many of the flowers and nutritious foods that sustain us. Canonized in my imagination, Saint Monarca is dedicated to the preservation of the Monarch butterfly. I created this saint to offer protection as the butterflies make their journey south to their overwintering grounds in the mountains of central Mexico. When they arrive, they will cluster together, coating the sacred Oyamel Fir trees of Michoacán. This piece is adorned with a 3-dimensional chrysalis pendant. © 2024 Laurie Buman. All rights reserved.

I am a Chicago-based artist best known for mixed media pieces that often combine digital technology with traditional mediums such as: pastel, acrylic, wax, gold leaf and photography. The work is rooted in my personal search for the sacred and divine that is frequently found in the indigenous cultures and rituals of Mexico. My approach is to create pieces layered with meaning beyond the obvious. Every component and image within each work has its own unique history. I purposefully combine them to tell a greater story that transcends the physical and touches the spiritual. This body of work is my way of bringing light into the darkness. It is inspired by long-held beliefs of Mexican culture, most notably from Catholicism, and the selfless legacy of saints. Through these pieces, I humbly attempt to reflect upon social issues that affect the most vulnerable among us today.
