A mural full of odd and somewhat disturbing faces can be found in a narrow alley near the corner of Prince Arthur St. and Saint Laurent Blvd. It was painted by Mono Sourcil, (aka Maxilie Martel) a Montreal street artist. It dates from Mural Festival 2017 and has survived well.
Some of the people look rather ordinary and are doing ordinary things…. others, not so much.
As you walk around the city of Montreal, you can probably spot quite a few paper paste-ups featuring collage images of people that were created by an artist that signs her pieces as Madame Gilles.
below: Similar image as above but this time on a door with another, including “One Day You Will Come” by @_doverin
below: A little less abstract and a lot less colour
The next two pictures show the same doorway. First the top section where once again the same image appears.
Lower portion of the door.

As you walk down the lane, there are a number of older murals along with a lot of graffiti.
below: A Waxhead creation
below: Three mermaids by three different artists including lulukathulu and Amanda Valdes
below: A blue eye on the door. With a smaller eye drawn inside it.
below: Some of the murals have been tagged over. Parts of the pink animals (and blue dog) are still peeking out above the mess.
Klone Yourself mural, from the 2016 Montreal MuralFest, features two black and white striped upside down human-like figures
below: The hand on the sidewalk that supports the figures.
below: The figures take up the whole of the side of the house (4 storeys?) and are marvelously placed. Their feet are against the roof and the windows of the building are their faces. One figure is resting a hand on the corner of a window.
Klone Yourself is a Ukrainian artist who lives in Tel Aviv Israel.
Lovebot went to Montreal for MuralFest 2015
He was spotted all over town!

below: or with friends
below: Or just hanging around by himself
below: Because not all the locals were friendly!
In an alley near rue Mont Royal and rue Saint Denis is a mural based on the characters from the story of Alice in Wonderland – the white rabbit worrying about the time, a grinning cheshire cat who rises above it all, human playing cards, and a dopey looking hookah smoking caterpillar.
