Santa Muerte is a deity with many names. “Our Holy Mother of Death,” “Lady of Night,” “Lady of Shadows,” and “The Bony Lady” are just a few. She’s a highly revered deity in Mexico with millions of followers despite being condemned by the Catholic Church as “satanic” and misaligned with church teachings. Nevertheless, she persists. New from
Kidrobot, the Santa Muerte 8" Dunny was designed by New York-based painter, illustrator, and designer,
Stephanie Buscema, who has a knack for the macabre as evidenced by her playfully dark paintings and illustrations and also her Halloween-centric textile work that she produces for her company Kitschy Witch Designs... and Kidrobot, along with the guidance of Stephanie, nailed this one - WOW!
