Daniel Tremblay

I am a French-Canadian visual artist based in Montréal, Québec. I am a self-taught painter and a member of the Atelier Circulaire in Montréal where I study lithography and etching since 2019.My artistic background began in contemporary dance and choreography; I performed internationally with Desrosiers Dance Company from Toronto throughout the 1980s. This is when I began to paint and also develop my style of drawing. I toured the world and also received arts grants to study conceptual design and choreography in New-York, where I discovered the work of artists like Basquiat, Condo, Haring and Marden…In painting I work with color and rhythm, using brushes and different plastering tools. Again, with the influence of printing, I use a glass table as a flat surface and add layers with different mediums to create depth. Organicity and rawness emerge from this blend of techniques, allowing the viewers to interpret the work in their own way.
