This mural by Mateo, whose full name is Mathieu Bories, sits at the corner of avenue Papineau and Fleurimont in Montreal, at number 5850. It was created in 2015 as part of the Projet pilote d'art mural, a pilot programme organized by SODER, and it was funded through the Entente sur le développement culturel de Montréal.
What to expect
This is an outdoor street-art piece, so a visit is simply a walk to the corner and a look at the wall. It suits anyone who enjoys murals and public art, and it makes a short stop rather than a full outing. Because the work is on a street corner, it is best seen on foot, where you can take in the whole surface and step back for a wider view.
