Mountain consists of three large-scale sculpted murals and a series of four objects positioned on the ground. The first mural is located in the main hall of the Pavillon Président-Kennedy at the Université du Québec à Montréal and represents an imaginary mountain range. Back to back with the first mural, a second mountain barrier unfolds in monochromatic green Laurentian granite. A third mural leads the viewer from the main hall at ground level into a corridor. Four large, irregularly shaped benches are engraved with Greek letters from a two-thousand-year-old text. The words mean “I escaped great dangers.”
