The Heart Castle

Artist: Kirina Kelley — Spirit Art

I was physically abused by my father when I went to visit him for the first time when I was 12 years old. This is a representation of locking my heart away. I felt unworthy of being loved after he tried to kill me several times over the course of 6 months. I chose Gelatissmo because they help children who have experienced the same trauma. I have a story that I wrote that goes along with the art piece written in fairytale form. There is healing through love.
