Jennifer Troice
Jennifer Troice is a Mexican sculptor who began her artistic career in music-first on the piano and then on the harp. She had her first experiences with sculpting at the American School where she participated in the IB Art program, a decisive moment for her artistic training. Later, she honed her knowledge at the Massachusetts College of Art in Boston in 2005 and completed studies in human-body drawing, engraving, welding, and casting. Jennifer works in bronze sculptures, an inherently difficult medium, and finishes her works with different colored patina to express her style. Inspired by Constantin Brancusi's Cubism, Jennifer framed her artistry with a style she calls geometric minimalism, present in many of her collections and art pieces: In the Depth, Endangered Species Collections, Imagine, and Tree of Life. Her pieces have been exhibited in both private and public spaces in Mexico City. Currently living in Dallas, Texas, Jennifer is a wife, mother of three boys, and an avid diver.

Jennifer Troice always possessed an aptitude for art and the elements that came with it-the patience for the process, a keen eye for craft, and the heart to pour expression into a still sculpture.
Her journey, however, wasn't a smooth one. It was wrought with heartbreak, perseverance, vulnerability, resilience, and recovery. Her first art collection attests to her strength and shows how, like clay, she transformed her pain into beauty. In this bilingual edition, My Silver Lining: Healing Through Art brings to life the story of Jennifer's sculpting career. Her versatile work-such as a one-ton bronze tree, geometric sea creatures, and casted alloy abound with color-is on display in both Mexico and the United States. From her first collection to the latest, Jennifer shows her healing through her art and how her talent has helped others heal as well. Filled with personal stories, detailed photographs, and a picture-by-picture recounting of the casting process, Jennifer's life and art is a testament that, no matter the situation, everyone can find their own silver lining.
