BROOKLYN, NY

Carey Kirkella grew up in the suburbs of New York City and has been making photographs since she was twelve years old. She earned a BFA in media arts from Pratt Institute in 1999. Shooting in a documentary style, Carey’s images are full of saturated color and authentic moments that reflect American culture. An early influence on her work was the work of photographer Robert Frank who said, “When people look at my pictures I want them to feel the way they do when they want to read a line of a poem twice.”
