I consider myself a very spiritual person, and even though I am not a practicing Catholic, I believe in God in my own way, in a more universal way.
Devotion in Mexico is incredible, implicit in every day life, and very curious. In Mexico the Catholic God that was brought by the Spanish when they came to proselytize was adapted, mixed with the pagan traditions of the Native Americans; that’s why we can find a mix of religions in Mexican craft work.
I’m also very interested in the type of devotion that can turn into fanaticism. This is the type of devotion that manifests itself in our hearing each day about the “Virgin of the stove.” The “Virgin of the stove” refers to an apparition of the Virgin that a woman from a rural village saw appear on her stove; and after that there were many pilgrimages made to that spot. We can also see that the Mexican people are very much followers of the Virgin of Guadalupe, and you can see men with the image of the Virgin tattooed on their chests that say with pride: “The Virgin on my skin as in my heart.” For me this is a very interesting topic.
In this work of the Last Supper I wanted to show the point of view that God must have had at that moment. You always see the Last Supper from a frontal perspective and that to me is an unnatural perspective, since when we sit down at a table we distribute ourselves around it, and that’s why I thought it would be interesting to show this subject from another angle.
