This is a street-art mural in Montreal, painted in 2018 by the artist Mateo, whose full name is Mathieu Bories. It sits on the wall at 6952 Rue Delorimier, at the corner of Rue Bélanger, in the Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension borough of the city.
About the work
The mural was produced under the city's Programme d'art mural (volet 2), in partnership with KOLAB. Public art programmes of this kind bring painted works onto walls across Montreal, and this piece is one of them, found simply by walking the surrounding streets rather than inside a gallery or museum.
What to expect
- A single outdoor artwork, viewed from the street and best seen on foot.
- A short, easy stop that suits a walk through the neighbourhood.
- A way to see how the borough's walls are used for contemporary public art.
Because the mural is outdoors, it can be enjoyed at any time you are in the area. The city's own record for the work, listed under its public mural collection, offers further details and is a useful reference before you go.
The mural suits visitors who enjoy discovering art in everyday settings. Plan it as part of a wider exploration of the borough, where the streets around Rue Delorimier reward an unhurried walk.
