The career of artist González changed dramatically during the decade of the 1970's, when she started using photojournalism images of the victims of the armed conflict in Colombia, particularly women, to create a hybridization of the tradition of western painting and popular imaginary. The present collection is a portrait series of the leader of the rural community of Rancho Grande, Yolanda Izquierdo, (inspired by a photograph from newspaper El Tiempo). Izquierdo was murdered in January of 2007 during paramilitary actions against the Columbian "campesinos" and artist González recreates the popular small format prayer cards of religious icons to honor her memory.
