La part du lion

That same year, 1979, La Part du lion is a large format with a very fine grid pattern that creates a kaleidoscopic colored animation effect. Each window here is very full, and the whole thing produces a multicolored shimmer like flashing lights or confetti. - Duquette, J.-P. (1982). The return of Denys Matte. Life of the Arts, 27 (107), 40–41
