Julie Tremblay was born in Quebec City in 1972 and earned a BA in visual arts from Université Laval in 1995. Using industrial and recycled materials, she creates sculptures, installations, and performance art that blend nature and technology. She questions our place on earth and in the universe in hopes of engendering a new perspective on human nature in our environment. A single overarching question underpins her work: what is the nature of nature?
In her sculpture, the artist expresses the study of the relationship between forces, movement, and form. Morphodynamique seems to be in a constant state of flux as it spills from the skylight, drawing the eye to its mobile anchorage. “My sculpture is made of variable-density, spray-painted webs of aluminum. It is inspired by the metamorphic processes that shape living and non-living things as well as the body's movements—and the clothing that flows with them.”
