I took these photos somewhere between July and June this summer underneath the infamous Montreal ringways (mainly Décarie) which are under constant reconstruction. When you walk underneath these ringways and look up, at the bottom of the road, you can actually see missen pieces of concrete along with red and blue spray marks tagging the weak spots going under repair. These marks are not of course tags which writers are known for but marks for the reconstruction company to keep a record of their never ending work.

The placement is pretty incongruous, especially given the absolutely hideous it's pictured in front of here and the variety of buildings along Sherbrooke. Any extra background or details on the statue would be gratefully received!
