​Kidcarol is a visual artist from York, Pennsylvania currently based in Brooklyn, New York. Her work explores themes such as identity and healing through introspective abstractions. Inspired by the interconnectedness of nature and religion, the artist tells stories stemming from her religious upbringing and the gradual shifts from religious to spiritual, York to New York, and actual to abstract.

My work functions like a freehand journal—an emotional record where paint flows in response to lived experience. Each piece begins in a moment of intensity and unfolds intuitively, continuing until I feel emptied and clear. The process is deeply introspective, rooted in curiosity and self-referral.
 

Spirituality, symbolism, and nature shape the language of my practice. Through abstraction and surrealism, I explore how personal narratives intersect with the wider world, using the canvas as a space to ask questions and find answers. My art becomes a place to pause, to feel, and to heal.
 

Embracing slowness is central to both my creative process and my way of life. In a world overwhelmed by speed and stimulation, I aim to offer a visual counterweight—one that invites stillness and encourages presence. Above all, I return again and again to the theme of interconnectedness: between self and world, inner and outer, the seen and the felt.
