Caroline Otis Heffron lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. She earned her BA in Studio Art from St. Lawrence University, where she was awarded The Frederick Remington Prize, and holds an MFA from the School of Visual Arts.

Heffron’s multidisciplinary practice spans figurative oil painting and ceramics, connecting historical and contemporary cultural symbols with women’s body language in stacked, surrealistic compositions through a distinctly female gaze.

Her recent exhibitions include Phantom Body at Gloria’s Project Space, New York, and Plexiglass Proscenium, an online exhibition with Paradice Palase. Additional exhibition highlights include Kent State University, Long Island University, La MaMa Galleria, and Gowanus Open Studios, where her work received a recommendation from Hyperallergic.

As a curator, Heffron has organized projects such as Objects of Desiring at SPRING/BREAK Art Show and Pearls of Wisdom at Studioninedee, NYC. She is also the founder of @artistsconnectedprojects, an initiative bringing artists together through shared inspiration and connected themes.
