"My Baby My Savior" is a painting that captures the bond between Jesus and His mother Mary. Kate Lee reflects on her own experience as a mother to draw parallels, "there's a moment when it's just you and your baby and you're bonding with that baby." She transfers these emotions onto canvas, imagining the sacred connection between the mother of Christ and her son.
Lee describes the artwork as depicting "that tender moment between mother and son," a time that is both deeply personal and universally understood by parents. This piece invites viewers to consider the simple love shared in quiet moments of early parenthood, where the weight of responsibility is just beginning to dawn.
Alluding to Mary's awareness of Jesus' destiny and divinity Lee remarks, "She knows who she's holding," yet in this moment, He is simply her baby.
