This mural by Paulie Heart stands at 5365 avenue Bourbonnière in Montreal, Canada, at the entrance to the alley. It is a street-art piece, so a visit is best made on foot, as a short detour while exploring the neighbourhood rather than a destination in itself.
About the work
The mural was created in 2016 by the artist Paulie Heart. It was produced in partnership with SODER under the city's Programme d'art mural (volet 2), a municipal mural programme. The work is also listed under its French name, Murale située au 5365, avenue Bourbonnière (entrée de la ruelle).
What to expect
- Location: on the street-facing wall at the entrance to the alley, which makes it easy to spot as you pass.
- Type of visit: a quick, free look at public art, best combined with a walk through the area.
- More information: the City of Montreal keeps a record of the mural on its public art pages, where you can find the artwork's details.
Making the most of your trip
Because the mural is outdoors and tied to its wall, the experience is simply to see it in place and to take in the street around it. Plan a little extra time to wander nearby streets, and bring a camera if you wish to photograph the piece in daylight.
