"Rosa Santísima" - Christopher Umana - Spray paint, acrylic, and Indian ink on wood in an antique frame - 13"x16"(framed) - AVAILABLE

Umana revisits his Coraline Corset Girl series and creates a Day of the Dead version of a magpie named Rose. Umana says... My home is constantly surrounded by them, and the superstitions related to them and death proved to be a worthy subject matter for this piece. In Hispanic culture, La Santísima Muerte is generally portrayed as a figure who resembles the Virgin Mary but with a skull instead of a female face. Her veil and attire is also adorned colorfully and with jewlery and flowers. I reinterpreted this with the intricacy of a corset, and the shape of her head to mimic a veil.
