Sylvain Tremblay

Tremblay received a BA in Anthropology at Montreal University and continued his studies at LaSalle College in Visual Presentation. Print designer by day and an autodidact painter, Tremblay explores color, texture, and beauty through collaged portraiture. Colliding the tangible and digital worlds, Tremblay works to take the inspiration found in nature, photography, and fashion to create artwork that immobilizes you with direct eye contact and slaps you with color. Through a process that begins in the digital realm and ends with the directness of the artist’s hand in vivid mark-making, images are transformed into hypnotic, ephemeral works of art. The Montreal native establishes motion and depth through textures and colors spurned from nature and fashion to create an aesthetically intriguing interpretation of beauty.
