Artducommun was founded by Simon Bachand and Jasmin Guérard-Alie in 2006. The Montreal-born art collective is uniting professional artists with over 15 years of experience with murals. Using innovative techniques and a bold sense of imagination, the artists are constantly searching for new and unique ways to approach each creation. Their pieces are designed to integrate into their environments while respecting, incorporating, and enriching the existing architecture. Artducommun’s creative process takes into consideration the history and experience of a work’s location. The positioning of each mural thus creates a space for social interaction, while offering passersby a original and timeless visual experience.
This mural represent the cultural richness that the expo 67 brought to Montreal. It reveals to us some of the artistic patterns that blends together to create the visual. They all have a common link, they illustrate the elements of nature. The Montreal metro expresses modernity and the bond between the people and their cultural heritage.
