"des Dieux, et des Monstres" (of Gods, of Monsters) is a 3D-rendered collage conceived by Montréal-based artist Mara Eagle. This sprawling mural portrays a seascape featuring a lively cast of semi-divine humanoids and monsters leisurely floating in an oceanic reverie.
Eagle sourced her imagery from Renaissance and Romantic paintings, Greek mythology, popular culture, and her own repertoire of characters from previous works. She employs the language of gaming and animation to create a buoyant fantasy exploring the liberatory potential of cyberspace and her interests in art history, science, and technology.
With its pastel-hued skies reminiscent of J.M.W. Turner paintings, winged putti, gleeful dolphins, baroque excesses, and dramatic protagonists, the scene is wholly exuberant.
- This mural can be found along the corridor of the MAC at Place Ville-Marie
