This mural by Phillip Adams stands at the corner of Sanguinet and Émery streets in Ville-Marie, in the heart of Montreal, Canada. It was created in 2012 and forms part of the city's Programme graffitis et murales, carried out in partnership with MU, the organisation that works with artists on public art in Montreal.
What to expect
The mural is a street-art piece, so the visit is simple: you come to the corner, look at the wall, and take your time with it. Because it sits on a public street, it suits a short stop during a walk through the neighbourhood rather than a trip planned around it alone.
- Artist: Phillip Adams

Around the mural
The mural is one of many public artworks Montreal has supported through its street-art programme, so it pairs well with a wider look at the city's murals. Ville-Marie is the downtown core, and visitors exploring it on foot will find shops, cafés and other sights within easy reach of the corner.
For further details about this particular work, the City of Montreal publishes a dedicated record for it on its murals website, which you can find by searching the city's public art listings for the mural's name.
