Last Stop June 21 to September 29 2024

Last Stop is a sculpture installation in an open-air museum : multiple layers in time and space coexist with composite reproductions of the commercial signage that once graced the streets of Longueuil. Recalling Las Vegas’s Neon Museum, the work invites us to take a stroll back in time through the vestiges of our restored past using archival photos. The selection pays homage to the businesses that played a crucial role in the life of the neighbourhood, weaving together a richly varied social fabric.
