Genevieve Tremblay

 

Statement: I have fallen back in love with drawing… through the integration of several no-code generative tools that I combine with my more traditional methods of painting, filmmaking, and animation. I recently taught a generative class and got reacquainted with some of the early generative media pioneers (the Algorists!) revisiting the early days of new media. Generative processes and procedural methods have long been part of the way I make images. Whether it be visual investigations focused on the wetlands I inhabit, my travels exploring geothermal activity in Yellowstone, or shorebirds along the California coast, I visually synthesize these observations as a way of experiencing and making sense of the world around me. The integration of procedural methods of painting, drawing, and printmaking blended with more technology-based methods of digital video and audio processing and animation is where I find a great sense of discovery.

Bio: Genevieve Tremblay is a Bellevue-based new media artist. Her work pushes the boundaries of digital and networked technology to move the art experience from formalized spaces into the public realm in imaginative ways. Bringing the analog sensibilities of a traditional plein-air painter together with that of a 21st Century digital media artist, she employs powerful observation methods that alter and deepen her perspective of the natural world and our relationship to it. She works with a suite of mobile, digital + virtual tools that allow her to capture, process, and dematerialize visual/audio material she gathers in the field. Her work is best categorized as ‘Post-Net’... art created via dynamic mobile and virtual interfaces and is presented and shared across multiple traditional, experimental and online platforms.
