This mural by the artist Omen stands at 1535 rue Beaudet, in the Saint-Laurent borough of Montreal, Canada. It was painted in 2014 and forms part of the city's street-art collection, making it a straightforward stop for anyone interested in public art on a walk through the neighbourhood.
About the work
The mural was produced under the Projet pilote d'art mural, a pilot programme for wall art, and was funded through the Entente sur le développement culturel de Montréal, the cultural development agreement between the City of Montreal and the Quebec government. The city's public mural listing also refers to it as the mural located at 1535, rue Beaudet, which is the name you will most often see on maps and in city records.
