This mural by Fanny Aishaa, painted in 2013, is found in an alley at 5570 7e avenue, in the Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie borough of Montreal, Canada. It was produced as part of the city's Programme graffitis et murales, which is run by SODER, and it is one of the many public artworks that give the city's streets their character.
What to expect
- A street-art piece painted on a wall in a back lane, so it suits a short, unhurried walk rather than a formal visit.
- A chance to see work from the city's mural programme in a residential part of Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie.
- Easy to combine with other stops in the borough if you are exploring the neighbourhood on foot.
Getting there and around
The mural is in a ruelle, or alley, so arrive on foot and take care to watch for traffic and pedestrians in the lane. Because it sits within a residential area, a visit is best made quietly and with respect for the people who live nearby.
If you want more detail about the work or its location, the City of Montreal publishes an information page for it at ville.montreal.qc.ca, under its murals listings. Plan your visit around the neighbourhood as much as the artwork itself: the borough's streets and local life are a good part of the reason to go.
