(Saype, Artist)

"I painted a giant PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) bottle, a piece of trash. The idea behind it is to raise people's awareness towards respecting nature but also water. / On top of that, here we are connected with the rest of the world because the Rhone River starts here and crosses the whole of France to end in the Mediterranean. So the impact we have here has quite a global impact."
