David Carey

David Carey is a photographic artist based in Port Moody, BC., Canada. Carey holds an MFA in Photography from the Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts, Bard College, New York. He has participated in many one-person shows and group shows, published a children's book and has had his photographs featured in Photo Life magazine.

Carey's most recent work involves fanciful, imaginary themes involving childhood and life from a child's point of view. Using 3 D objects he has documented what life  would be like if dinosaurs lived amongst us in an urban environment. His recent show, “A Boy's Dream" paid tribute to his favorite children's book. His “Bookworm's 2.0" project examines the life of bookworms, those tiny, shy creatures that live in books and build contraptions related to the content of the book.

Taking extreme closeups of plants and flowers, Carey has revealed the mysterious activities that go on unseen in front of our eyes.

A recent journey introducing humour into photographs has been break for Carey from covid concerns.
