FIGHT POVERTY WITH ART
La Catrina has become a powerful symbol of El Día de los Muertos, representing the Mexican spirit of embracing and laughing at death itself. Originally envisioned as an elegantly dressed woman, La Catrina serves as a satirical commentary on the upper class and the superficiality associated with wealth. La Catrina embodies a celebration of life and death, encouraging us to honor our loved ones and cherish our memories with joy and humor.
