About The Artwork

Femicide is an act of violence against women that touches all cultures, races and ages. For centuries, the victimization of women has known no boundaries throughout the world. This work of art honors all women who have died or disappeared as a result of violence perpetrated against them. In this ofrenda, the image of Saint Agatha represents the suffering of these women. Saint Agatha was forced to work in a brothel, brutally mutilated and eventually died at the hands of those who imprisoned her. Through Saint Agatha, this ofrenda captures the transition of women from their earthly anguish to divine transcendence. By elevating awareness for the plight of these women, I help the world remember them and give them recognition they never received here on earth. Note: This piece has an actual pink rosary attached. © 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.
