La Virgen Negra” by Alfredo Arreguín (Mexican-American) – Oil on canvas / 2013 – Bainbridge Island Museum of Art (Washington) #WomenInArt #art #artText #artwork #AlfredoArreguín #Arreguín #MexicanAmericanArtist #BlueskyArt #PNWart #ContemporaryArt #ReligiousArt #bskyart #BainbridgeIslandMuseumofArt
At the center of the canvas stands a serene Black Madonna, her rich brown skin softly illuminated against a patterned gold halo. She seems to be in prayer, arms slightly open in quiet welcome, her long robe and mantle dissolving into Arreguín’s signature mosaic of leaves, blossoms, fish, and birds. Hidden within these vivid textures, a slender, spotted wild cat prowls across the lower foreground with its elongated body and curling tail echoing the rhythms of the foliage. The animal’s amber eye catches a glint of divine light, anchoring the Virgin in a living world rather than a celestial one. Every inch of the surface teems with motion: turquoise vines twist into sacred geometry as floral tesserae shimmer like beadwork. The background is a continuous field of repeating organic forms in blues, greens, and golds, with hidden creatures emerging as you look. The Madonna’s presence feels both human and elemental. Mexican-American artist Alfredo Arreguín’s “La Virgen Negra” fuses Catholic iconography with the artist’s own “pattern painting” style he developed from Mexican folk art and Pacific Northwest ecology. The Black Madonna, venerated across Europe and the Americas, embodies protection, resilience, and inclusion. For Arreguín, she becomes a guardian of an emerald world. By rendering Mary as Black and integrating her into a living mosaic of flora and fauna, Arreguín reframes devotion through cultural memory and biodiversity. The painting’s surface of thousands of small strokes suggests time, prayer, and care as if every motif is a cell in a larger organism. In 2013, Arreguín was a celebrated elder of Latino art in Seattle, known for portraits (like Frida Kahlo, poets, & community figures) and for transforming memory into pattern. Exhibited in “Alfredo Arreguín—Life Patterns” at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art in 2018, “La Virgen Negra” invites us to find, and be found by, the sacred presence in the forest formed from the land and the people it shelters.
