Since I photographed StreetArt in my neighborhood, I learn every day about its history, architecture... Cool way to revisit your city, especially with this lockdown.

Today direction to the Baron Byng High School where three of its walls were painted with cool murals by different artists. This post will be mainly about the parking lot and its wall...

At the entry of the parking, a mashup done by (top to bottom and left to right) Waxhead for the cats, Cryote for the heads of blue and pink dog, Gets (?) for the green lettering, Meor for the purple city and Peru143 for the yellow lettering and on the bottom Mole Patrol for the weird caracter and Pound Puppy for the dog in the right.

WHERE

Baron Byng High School, 4251 Rue Saint-Urbain, Canada.

Position on Google Maps

The Baron Byng High School was built in 1921 and was named in honour of a British soldier, Julian Hedworth George Byng, 1st Viscount of Vimy, who later became the Governor General of Canada. The school closed in 1980 and today it's the home of Sun Youth (or Jeunesse au Soleil in French), a social association serving the needs of the surrounding community.

WHO

Cryote & Waxhead

Based in Montreal, Sebastion Millar aka Cryote is street-artist closed to the 203 crew. He often works with Waxhead, street artist from Toronto. Now based in Montréal, Waxhead is involved graffiti for almost a decade with his very colorful and detailed style.

I think I already say that 😀 but I'll soon make a more detailed post on these two very prolific artists in Montreal.
