LAUSANNE, Switzerland (Reuters) – A Swiss-French artist has painted a giant fresco depicting a crumpled plastic bottle directly onto the grass of a Swiss park with a view to raising awareness about pollution.

Saype, 34, used chalk and charcoal for the huge painting which is about the length and width of three tennis courts in Lausanne’s Louis-Bourget park on the shores of Lake Geneva.

The painting, which is cordoned off, is expected to last for two or three weeks.
