 
Sunlight floods Jenifer Carey’s compositions, her lively use of color bringing the scenes to life. One can almost hear the instruments, distant shorebirds, and the clinking of spoons against saucers. Even her bronze sculptures seem frozen in time, as though ready to begin performing at any moment. Throughout Carey’s works runs an intuitive appreciation for the interactions and motion of gatherings. There is an easy freedom to her figurative studies on jazz musicians, people relaxing in cafes and along the shore, and the rhythmic harmony of fishermen working to haul in their day’s catch. The influence of Matisse in Carey’s prints and oil paintings is clear, her use of flattened space and unmuted hues creating an expressive sense of spontaneity. Carey employes a variety of mediums in her work, moving fluidly between painting, printing, and sculpture.
Born in England, Carey now lives in Madrid where she practices as a full-time physiotherapist. Her works have received widespread acclaim in both Spain and Belgium.
