The statue is just a direction. Not itself (the clay or whatever material it is made of) that is being worshiped.
Don't feel excluded. Trust in Mother Mary that her prayers- like you ask others to pray for you (because you believe they are good people) that God will hear her request for you.
That said you need to understand and contemplate the Communion of Saints or relearn what that is (as you say you are Catholic)
God bless
