As always with Stare, his murals are stunning and this one is no exception. An explosion of colors very well integrated into its environment, a brick wall :

WHO
Stare is Canadian street artist based in Montreal known for his innovative and versatile style. He begins graffiti as writer as he likes typography and calligraphy. He's co-founder of the NME crew (Nous Menaçons L'Ennemi in French, We Threaten The Enemy).
With Art Gang Gallery, this mural was painted with acrylic and spray paint in 2016 on a huge brick wall, 178 m². (source : Art Public Montreal).
The photos were taken at the beginning of winter because otherwise the trees hide part of the work and in the heart of winter the parking lot next serves as a snow deposit. You have to have the right timing 😀
Stare's signature, even his signature is great 😀
"Stare has forged a powerful aesthetic that has lasted and ripened through the years. Constantly exploring, his style is in a state of constant evolution, incorporating a street and studio practice." (source : Mural Festival).

Very old graffiti 2002, I have a doubt but it would seem that this is a work of Stare's youth (to be confirmed).
