- project: A collection of garbage cans and the image of a dirty city
- documentary
- publication: Project excerpts published in the Montreal magazine URBANIA, 15 Vert (Green), Spring 2007, p. 23/33. "Une poubelle" by Valerie Duhaime
- Photographs taken during the month of February 2007
- Montreal is considered to be a dirty city. The local media reports it and it can be noticed as well. I documented the use of garbage cans which are often cram-full . The project is at the same time a collection of different types of garbage cans, which differ from an neighborhood to the other. I even discovered a recycling garbage can! In 'Old Montreal ', an area which is frequented by VIP and tourists and obviously represents Montreal's show case. Let's see if new programs, which are discussed by the head of the city, will be sucessful and make Montreal become a clean city.
