Natachee responds to Guadalupe by combining poetry, art, and iconography to her personal relationship to Guadalupe as well as her own motherhood.  

This project vision for Ojos Diferentes started out as a preliminary raw mind image of a very distinct visual element accompanied by spoken word and music. The iconic image of Our Lady of Guadalupe is so powerful and evocative on its own, that I wanted to keep the focus on her and her story. I wanted the experience to be that of an individual dream sequence or vision quest. I wanted it to be reminiscent of a first meeting. To me, her narrative is very poetic and is centered in a sacred sense of motherhood. Me, being a poet and expectant mother myself, carrying out this project felt very significant to me. Aside from her image accompanied by my words, I wanted there to be two other elements present in this experience: the Castilian roses and the star constellations. These were both historical representations and manifestations of her miracle as experienced through the apparitions. My intention with this piece is to evoke a sense of connection and humanity, and to offer my perception as a woman and mother.
