The Soothing Embrace of a Grandmother (751)
The Soothing Embrace of a Grandmother (751)
Giclée fine art print made after an Andreea Molocea original.
“How dark it was inside the wolf!”, said the Red Riding Hood. Is the line that made me see this illustration. I saw Red Riding Hood in the dark, in her Grandmother’s arms. I saw them together united in the deep dark belly of the beast where fears lie. I saw myself missing my own grandmothers who are long gone and whom I wished I still had around.
In many cultures, grandmothers are the keepers of wisdom and tradition. They guide us through life’s labyrinth with their experiences and stories. In this fairy tale, the grandmother represents not only the familial love and guidance but also the archetype of the wise old woman, the crone, the one that will show us the way.
This tale is more than a cautionary story, but one of profound awakening. It encourages me to think about the intergenerational strengths I got from the women who raised me. The duo grandmother - granddaughter is a powerful archetype that inspires me and I hope will inspire other women too to navigate their paths with courage, and the knowledge that even in the darkest moments we have in us the power and the generational strength to survive and rise above any hardships. Just like our grandmothers did.
And may we know these women, and may we be them.
