Brooklyn Mohr is a multidisciplinary artist and writer whose practice centers on the intimate relationship between visual art and language. A graduate of Kalamazoo College with a degree in Studio Art, her work blurs the line between poetry and painting, creating layered, emotionally charged pieces that invite viewers to sit with ambiguity, contradiction, and personal truth.

Rooted in intuition, her paintings often begin without a plan, guided instead by an internal rhythm that gives rise to vivid, face-driven imagery. Color plays a vital role—often loud, raw, and alive—as a way of capturing what cannot be said. Writing, especially poetry, is equally central to her practice. Influenced by confessional traditions and a deep connection to the natural world, their words serve both as companion and challenge to her visual work.

Themes of loneliness, identity, memory, and resilience run through her art, often pulling from personal experience while pointing outward, toward broader social and emotional landscapes. In recent years, her focus has shifted to creating socially engaged work that critiques and questions, without losing the honesty and ferocity that have defined her voice since childhood.

Her recent solo show, DUM SPIRO SPERO, brought together over thirty paintings and writings, emphasizing the inextricable link between language and image in their creative process.
