This is a mural at 357 rue Saint-Jacques in Montreal, Canada, created in 2013 by the artist collective Artducommun. It is listed in the city's street-art record as number 34 of the murals catalogued under the Programme graffitis et murales.
About the work
The mural was produced in partnership with Maison des Jeunes l'Escalier de Lachine, a youth centre, which gives the piece a community connection. Because it sits on a building facade on a city street, it is best seen as part of the everyday streetscape rather than as an indoor exhibition.
What to expect
- Type of visit: a short, self-guided stop on foot, suited to anyone interested in public art.
- Location: on rue Saint-Jacques, in Montreal, so it can be combined with a walk through the surrounding neighbourhood.
- Further detail: the city's own mural page for this work, linked from the official record, gives the catalogue information and is worth checking before you go.
Visitors interested in Montreal's murals and street art can use this stop as one point on a wider walk, looking at other works the city has commissioned and the shops and cafés that line the streets around them.
