Brooklyn Kleinschmidt
Ladson, SC
My name is Brooklyn Kleinschmidt, and I'm an artist and poet from the Lowcountry. I've been making art for as long as I could hold a pencil, it was one of those things that always kept me level headed when the world became too overstimulating. I was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder at 15, and have been surrounded by people who possess some sort of mental ailment all of my life. Most of my work explores things that are hard to describe with simple words, like mental health and complex emotions. I want to speak for the unspoken for, building a platform where people are open to listening. I plan to use my art to foster this community, using common symbols, stories, and visual cues to bring about feelings that are hard to explain and help people feel seen.
