First, filter array to get current page based on id. And iterate over the properties to create the list. For test, pageId is set to 2.

  $(function(){
  var json =
	[
		{
			"id": "2",
			"slug": "parent",
			"title": "Parent",
			"subcategories": [
				{
					"id": "12",
					"slug": "child1",
					"title": "child1"
				},
				{
					"id": "14",
					"slug": "child2",
					"title": "child2"
				},
				{
					"id": "15",
					"slug": "child3",
					"title": "child3"
				},
				{
					"id": "16",
					"slug": "child4",
					"title": "child4"
				}
			]
		},
		{
			"id": "11",
			"slug": "parent2",
			"title": "Parent2",
			"subcategories": [
				{
					"id": "32",
					"slug": "child1",
					"title": "child1"
				},
				{
					"id": "33",
					"slug": "child2",
					"title": "child3"
				}
			]
		}
	]

	var pageId = 2;
	var currentPage = json.filter(function(el){
		return el.id == pageId;
	})[0];	
	$.each(currentPage.subcategories, function(index, obj){
		$('#list-category-slider').append('<div class="item"><a href="/' + obj.slug + '">' + obj.title + '</a></div>');
	})
});
