L8Zon

France  • 1971

Presentation

At L8zon, the passion for drawing takes root from childhood. The pencil as a megaphone. A banner which, coupled with his addiction to punk rock music, will serve to express his revolt against a society that does not suit him. Self-taught, he will use pencil and pastel to better explore other continents, those of hyperrealistic and then surrealist landscapes. So many universes to invent. But this technique, too limited for his taste, does not allow L8zon to express himself as he wishes, fully. Just as the format, too reductive, is no longer sufficient. The artist needs air, space, amplitude.


He then turns to the spray can, and stencils make their first forays into his work. The constraint evaporates while urban art becomes his trademark. A hard worker, L8zon never ceases to refine his technique, the grain of his creations, in order to obtain the hyperrealism he has dreamed of for so many years. The various media that he uses, pallet, cardboard, slate or vinyl record, offer him a whole range of means to overcome established rules. Freedom is now the muse that guides his hands, bringing him to the colleges in order to transmit and give birth to who knows! This spark of independence in students in search of meaning, keeping in mind this student that he was too.
