Biography
Short Statement from Caroline Cary.
..
My work has evolved out of years of painting landscapes and figures. It draws on a vast mental archive of images and the intense excitement engendered by such experience.
Although figuration is the starting point for my work, it is not the primary concern. My personal aim is to make paintings that resonate through their use of colour and their formal qualities, opening that space in the brain which leads to a heightened awareness of the visual world.
I work with a variety of mediums and am currently collaborating with a laser performer, Jim Webb, exploring innovative ways of using laser lights to make Art Installations.
The move towards three dimensions, using light, is another way of exploring pictorial space.
It has been said that Art aspires to the condition of music. I am interested also in the primacy of sight and how equally music can be described in terms of colour.
