This mural by Zek One stands at 5940 boulevard Monk in Le Sud-Ouest, a borough of Montreal, Canada. It was created in 2019 and is part of the city's mural art programme, produced with the collective KOLAB under the programme's second strand.
What to expect
- Kind of visit: an outdoor street-art stop, best seen on foot as you walk the area.
- Location: on boulevard Monk, in the Le Sud-Ouest district, south-west of the city centre.
- Artists: Zek One, with KOLAB.
- Year: 2019.
Because the mural is outdoors, it can be viewed at any time without a ticket, though daylight will make the colours easiest to see. The site is a short detour rather than a full outing, so it suits a visitor already exploring the Monk area or looking for public art across the city.
Around the mural
Le Sud-Ouest is a mixed neighbourhood of residential streets, workshops and local businesses, and the boulevard Monk corridor gives a sense of the area's everyday character. Pairing the mural with a wander through nearby streets is a simple way to fill an afternoon.
