Born in 1938 in Montréal, watercolour painter Huguette Desjardins taught visual arts at the Université du Québec à Montréal. With its dozens of colours and shades, the mural frieze at station Parc is unquestionably her largest-scale work.
The constant movement of passengers is counterpointed by a multicoloured, modular frieze running along the walls. The murals’ regular triangular folds present three different appearances from different viewing angles.
