CCC's Street Art Contest #193 Michelle Hoogveld, Montreal
For CCC's Street Art Contest #193, I'm featuring a mural done by artist Michelle Hoogveld. It was created during the renovation of the Hôtel le Germain in 2021, also as part of the Mural Festival. It's always good to have a bit of color in a city, it makes a city center more cheerful.
Pour CCC's Street Art Contest #193, je vous propose une murale de l'artiste Michelle Hoogveld. Elle a été réalisée lors de la rénovation de l'Hôtel le Germain en 2021 dans le cadre aussi du Mural Festival. C'est toujours bien d'avoir une peu de couleurs dans une ville, cela rend un centre ville plus joyeux.

WHERE
The mural is on the façade of Hotel Le Germain on Mansfield Street, and as President Kennedy's avenue ends there, the bright colors of this work can be seen from afar. Really interesting end result.
Comme je le disais en intro, la murale se trouve sur la façade de l'Hotel Le Germain sur la rue Mansfield et comme l'avenue de Président Kennedy se termine là, on peut apercevoir de loin les couleurs vives de cette œuvre. Vraiment intéressant comme résultat final.

WHO
Michelle Hoogveld
Michelle Hoogveld is a Canadian artist born in Calgary in 1984. She loves to play with colors and shapes, as this project proves. She has created colorful murals all over the world, especially in Canada and the United States, but also in Peru, Mexico and Europe (Germany, Portugal, England...).
Michelle Hoogveld est une artiste canadienne née en 1984 à Calgary. Elle aime jouer avec les couleurs et les formes comme le prouve ce projet. Elle a créé des murales colorées un peu partout dans le monde surtout au Canada et aux Etats Unis mais aussi au Pérou, au Mexique, et en Europe (Allemagne, Portugal, Angleterre...).
For this 17-storey high mural with over 80 different colors, Michelle Hoogveld had to work at height for the first time, with a gondola suspended from the roof of the building. It can't be easy to apply color in the wind, in the sun... I'm always impressed by the artists' perseverance in creating this kind of wall. In addition to the many colors, the artist often works with the shape of the heart, which ahe says is also present in this mural. I think I can see it, but I'm not sure (the blue part or the pink one 🤔).
Pour cette murale haute de 17 étages avec plus de 80 couleurs différentes, Michelle Hoogveld a dû pour la première fois travailler en hauteur avec une nacelle suspendue à partir du toit de l'immeuble. Cela ne doit pas être évident d'appliquer la couleur exposé au vent, au soleil... Je suis toujours impressionné par la persévérance des artistes pour réaliser ce genre de mur. En plus, des nombreuses couleurs, l'artiste travaille souvent avec la forme du coeur qui est présent aussi dans cette murale selon ses dires. Je crois l'apercevoir, mais pas je ne suis pas certain (la partie en bleu, non ? 🤔 ).
"I usually work in grids, and just as well, the front of Hôtel Le Germain Montréal is already done in grid form. So my idea was to create a gradient of colors in sections, and each section would be transitional to the next."
"Je travaille habituellement en grille et ça tombe bien, le devant de l’Hôtel Le Germain Montréal est déjà fait sous forme de grille. Mon idée a alors été de créer un dégradé de couleurs en sections et chaque section serait transitoire vers la prochaine."

That street art is so lovely
I love the way it looks like. It looks like phone cases
Beautiful mural indeed with all these colors. I hadn't thought of phone cases but that would be cool too.
Have a lovely day
Gorgeous work. The pattern laid over the existing pattern is really cool 👍
It completely changes the building, which was otherwise just one gray building among the others. Very good advertising for this hotel.
Enjoy your day
