To David and Briana by Alexa Druyanoff

Artist’s Statement: This piece memorializes a father David and his baby daughter Briana before they perished in the Holocaust. They are from a townlet called Druya in Belarus where my great grandfather emigrated from to come to the United States. The Yahrzeit candle further memorializes their love for each other and their lives, as they will not be forgotten.
