As a key figure of Catholic devotion, representations of the Virgin Mary stand as a crucial object of study to analyze the contemporary making of Catholicism and its intersection with national belonging, modernity, and cultural changes. This paper explores ways in which the Virgin Mary is depicted in South Korea and Singapore today to highlight some of its underlying dynamics as well as its significance for Asian Studies. Based on ethnographic observations, I argue that Marian images and statues that one can find across these two countries can be classified into three prototypes. In Singapore, three types of European forms of Mary are systematically found within local parishes. They each occupy a different location and reflect different devotional and historiographic functions. In Korea, three other representations are structuring Catholic sites: representations are rooted in Western esthetic, representations with traditional Korean symbols, and minimalist and curved representations of the Virgin. By questioning the evolving interplay between these Marian representations in Singapore and South Korea, I argue that these material representations of the Virgin Mary provide an important window to analyze tensions and collaborations between local, national, and global actors of Catholicism -laity, clergy, artists, non-Catholics, and generous patrons. Marian representations provide a methodological tool to discuss the ways in which the papal religion is gradually and dialogically "enculturated" into Asian Societies while remaining in fruitful dialogue with Europe.
