« Sara A.Tremblay is an artist who makes images, mostly.
But before the images, often there are actions, performances, experiments, or just the contemplation of life, its ordinary details and textures. There are mem
ories and stories that she gathers, that she takes into her hands, to which she gives the form of a clay sphere, for example. She might make a mould, and cast it in concrete. She might also leave it to dry, let it disintegrate slowly, accumulating scratches and marks as time passes, or as it is moved from one place to another.
A photo has probably already been taken. Maybe one was taken at the very beginning, when the clay was still damp, or maybe one was taken a bit later, or maybe they have been taken many times since. It is possible that photographs are all that is left of it.
It is possible that the sculpture was left behind on a vacant lot somewhere. That it was too heavy or too big to fit into a suitcase. That there were no takers when it had to be given away, or discarded. .» – Anne-Marie Proulx
