EMBELLISHMENT OF ST. CATHERINE STREET THROUGH URBAN ART

A ground art activity on the theme of distancing will be set up to the delight of visitors. The artists Roadsworth and Mathieu Connery will contribute to the beautification of Sainte-Catherine Street through urban art, between Saint-André and Papineau streets. The works will be created during the week of July 20 and will be on display in the neighbourhood until October 12.

MATHIEU CONNERY

Bio

Mathieu Connery has practiced urban art for over 10 years, conducting personal and collective mural in different parts of Montréal and Canada. He has focused lately on atypic
mural projects. Choosing textured and aged walls on which he integrates his geometric works. He would often come back and add elements to the work over time. He has produced a serie of ground painting interventions on the boulevard Saint-Laurent, that can be seen from all angles and vaguely recall child playground games. He has also reappropriated
existing graffiti, remixing it to his liking.

ROADSWORTH

Bio

Roadsworth first gained notoriety as a street artist using a stencil-based technique to alter and subvert, in often playful and humorous ways, various elements of the urban landscape. This early period of his career is chronicled in the NFB documentary: Roadsworth: Crossing the Line. His ground paintings, murals, and installations have been commissioned throughout North America, also in South America, Europe, and Asia. He has showcased his work with the LAF, the Cirque du Soleil, the Tour de France and Banksy’s Can’s Festival, to name a few. His unique approach of blending art and activism can be seen in his collaborations with such organizations as Greenpeace and Amnesty International. His recognizable brand of street art has been featured and discussed in many of the leading publications on street art in the past two decades. He lives in Montreal, Canada.
