Artwork description
This mural was painted as a hommage to the Cote-Des-Neiges neighborhood. As a ode to this vibrant area’s name, huge snowflakes decorate the background of the mural. A graceful woman, symbolizing the guardian of time and the winter season, holds a snow globe which contains architectural references to the area, such as the St. Joseph observatory and the Université de Montreal. The squirrel, a resourceful local critter, reminds us that in times of cold it is better to stock up on supplies. After all, the future is in our hands, just like the snow globe nestled in our guardians icy palms. The mural was designed and executed by : Dodo Ose, Earth Crusher and Zek One.
