This mural by the artist Borrris stands at 1759 rue Beaudry, in the Ville-Marie borough of Montreal, Canada. It was created in 2020 as part of the city's Programme d'art mural (volet 2), carried out in partnership with MU, the Montreal organization that works with artists on public art projects.
The work is a piece of street art, so it is best seen on foot, where you can stand back from the wall and then move closer to notice details. Because it is a public mural rather than an indoor attraction, there is no admission to arrange and nothing to book; a visit is simply a matter of finding the building and taking your time with the wall.
Planning your visit
- Location: 1759 rue Beaudry, Ville-Marie, Montreal
- Type of visit: an outdoor street-art stop, suited to a short walk
- Good to know: the city's own mural catalogue lists the work under its detail page, which is a useful place to check the artwork's record
Ville-Marie is the downtown core of Montreal, so the mural sits within easy reach of the city's central streets, shops, restaurants and transit links. Many visitors combine a look at the mural with a wider walk through the neighbourhood, which gives a fuller sense of how Montreal uses public art in its everyday streetscape.
If you enjoy street art, this is a straightforward stop to add to a day exploring the city centre. It is a quick, low-effort visit that suits both a dedicated art lover and a traveller who simply wants to see something distinctive while passing through.
