Jean-Paul Mousseau
Circles (1966)
Ceramic
Location: throughout the station
A vibrant contrast with the texture of the station’s concrete, circles composed of glazed ceramic tiles create a colourful rhythm through the station. It was thanks to this station’s architects, Papineau, Gérin-Lajoie et LeBlanc, that Peel became the first station in the métro to feature art integrated into its architecture.
