The art piece

The ‘Phoenix’ mural is a dreamlike art piece newly installed on the chemin des écoliers. Created on the façade of the fire station, it aims to raise awareness of natural hazards among young people in Vétroz, and to highlight the commitment of the emergency services. The Spanish artist chose the Phoenix, a symbol of resilience and rebirth, to illustrate our ability to overcome adversity. Whether facing natural disasters or emotional difficulties, Sabek encourages us to believe in our ability, individually and collectively, to rise up and overcome obstacles.

The blue background evokes the water of the Alps, the flames recall the acronym of the fire department, and the firebird, together with the elements of vegetation and small birds, symbolize harmony, solidarity, family and community. The bright, dynamic colors reinforce the artist’s message of hope for new generations.
