Lausanne artist CRBZ offers a calligraphy that is most often abstract. With his brushes and spray paint, he plays to build a movement, a dynamic of form inviting the viewer to daydream and free interpretation.
In the heart of Crest-Voland, where we live, we had the chance to meet CRBZ, the prince of calligraffiti, originally from Lausanne. Caught in the act of breathing life into a simple high-voltage transformer, the artist transformed it, in the space of a few hours, into a celestial fresco. His brushstrokes rival the skill of the great illuminators of the Middle Ages, capturing the infinite azure of the Alpine sky and the purity of snow that is less and less eternal. In this visual ballet that we are witnessing, the thick and thin lines intertwine and rise, like wisps of clouds, awakening our imagination and transporting us to distant horizons. The dialogue between shadow and light, between abstraction and the deconstructed letter, invites us to a dreamy introspection. His work is a gesture of freedom that suddenly electrifies our public space and rehumanizes the rue de l’Entre deux villes in a vibrant and poetic dialogue with the surrounding mountains.
