STORY: The frescos, which are painted directly on the grass and can last days depending on weather conditions, show a young boy and girl tracing squiggly lines on sketchpads to depict mountains, stars, trees and the moon.

The Swiss-French artist said his frescos -- which at around 3,000 square meters can be seen from the mountaintop and nearby pastures -- symbolize the need to reject uniformity and embrace different perspectives.

"The children are on different altitudes, so they are drawing different things," Saype said. "Even if they are at different altitudes, the two worlds they are drawing complement each other."
