Public art work

Created by Raphaëlle de Groot following a participatory process involving 350 people, the work is inspired by the functioning of memory, while its form evokes the museum's mission as an organ contributing to a circuit of memory connected to the city and the people who inhabit it. It is installed in the Cabaret du MEM.

The work was produced with financial support from the Government of Quebec and the City of Montreal, as part of the Montréal Cultural Development Agreement.
