Original Painting Signed Miniature Brooklynn Vyolet Acrylic on Canvas 2.5”x2.5”
“Hold Me Mommy” is an expressive depiction of the grief of young daughterhood. It’s a goodbye to childhood that expands where feminine connections grow into adulthood. The intimacy in small scale allows a close inspection into the preciousness of a mother daughter relationship. The abstract depictions of girl-like drawings on a tiny canvas serve as a nostalgic reminder of feminine root in girlhood. Brooklynn Vyolet is a painter from Eastern Kentucky who has been developing her art since her mother put paint on her hands as a toddler. Her work explores the complexities of girlhood, gender identity, sexuality, and childhood trauma. Through her work, she provides connection and a place of escape for feminine and queer identities.
