Marlene Luce Tremblay

Winner of the International Award “Lorenzo il Magnifico”, 5th Prize for Photography at the Florence Biennale 2017

Marlene Luce Tremblay is a photographer-artist who, as a result of extensive travels throughout the Middle East, was able to offer an artistic “archaeology” of the Arab world. She began this journey with explorations of Egypt and exhibited works both in Montreal and in Cairo, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Canada and Egypt. Throughout her career, Tremblay exhibited in Montreal, New York, Paris, London, Tunisia and Algiers.

Today, Tremblay lives in Montreal after living in New York for eight years while working at the United Nations in the Office of the Spokesperson for the Secretary-General as Information Assistant. She pursues her artistic activities while her two passions come together in an original and fascinating project of “international intercultural rapprochement” through visual arts in the context of cultural exchanges.

Tremblay studied photography at the Dawson Institute of Photography in Montreal and she is a McGill University graduate with a major in Political Science.
