Yolanda M. Lopez, “Madre Mestiza” [digital print] (2002)Jesus by association. Here, Lopez depicts a mestiza Mexican mother with the robes and rays of light of la Virgen de Guadalupe. The strength of the Holy Virgin’s veneration are transferred to the care of a mother of mixed Spanish and indigenous roots, depicting her tasks and status with dignity, counteracting a history of low social status.
