Lajubu: Laura Buitrago

The pandemic hit, and like most of us, Laura had to really look at herself in the mirror. Lockdown forced her to take a closer look at her mental health, which ultimately became the inspiration for her work. She firmly believes that suppressing, rejecting, or having shame in parts of ourselves are some of the main causes behind depression. By finding ways to interpret that relationship, her art became a source for healing.
