Street Art #521 Mural Festival 2022 Vexx, Montréal
We continue to discover the murals done during this edition of the Mural Festival in Montreal with today a very colorful tiger painted by Vexx, an expert of Doodle art. His works are filled with dozens of characters often surrounding an animal (turtle, llama...) as you can see on this wall.

Ses œuvres sont remplis de dizaines de personnages entourant souvent un animal (tortue, lama...) comme vous pouvez le constater sur ce mur.

🗺️ Position on Google Maps
In this parking lot, there are works on almost every wall. Because it's located right in front of the former main area of the Mural Festival where the concerts used to take place. On the left, it's a mural done by Denial, at the beginning of the Black Live Mater movement (more info on Street Art #307). The two murals on the left in the alley will be the subject of a future post. Unbearable suspense... 😀
Sur ce parking, il y a des œuvres sur presque tous les murs. Car il se situe juste en face de l'ancienne place principale du Mural Festival ou se déroulait avant les concerts. Sur la gauche, il s'agit d'une œuvre de Denial, faite au début du mouvement Black Live Mater (plus d'info sur Street Art #307). Les deux murales sur la gauche dans la ruelle seront le sujet d'un prochain post. Suspense intenable... 😀

Many references surround this red tiger head, the flowers of Takashi Murakami, SpongeBob, Hello Kitty, elements that seem to come straight out of old church windows like the skeleton and Cupid... a beautiful and colorful mix.
Beaucoup de références entoure cette tête de tigre rouge, les fleurs de Takashi Murakami, Bob l'Éponge, Hello Kitty, des éléments qui semblent tout droit sortis d'anciens vitraux d'église comme le squelette et Cupidon... un beau mélange très coloré.
"This is genuinely one of my favorite works I’ve ever made. I love the colors, the symmetry, and the contrast between the angry red tiger and the joyous colorful doodles."
"C'est véritablement l'une de mes œuvres préférées. J'aime les couleurs, la symétrie et le contraste entre le tigre rouge en colère et les joyeux gribouillis colorés." - Vexx (source : Instagram)
Before this colorful version, at the 2017 edition of the Mural Festival, MonoSourcil had painted this alley in its entire length with many characters in her unique style.
Avant cette version colorée, lors de l'édition de 2017 du Mural Festival, MonoSourcil avait peint cette ruelle dans toute sa longueur avec beaucoup de personnages dans son style unique :

Wow, that tiger is incredible! 🤩🥰 Thank you for sharing additional shots of the surrounding artwork as well. It was done by an amazing artist!
Vexx is a very talented artist... I really like the contrast with the realism of the tiger and all the funky doodles.
