ECT INVITES SAYPE to ANNET-SUR-MARNE
Saype ‘s artistic performance is at the heart of ECT’s circular economy approach.
From September 24 to 30, 2021, the artist has taken up residence in Annet-sur-Marne (77), on a site rehabilitated by ECT using inert soil, to create his new Land Art work from his “Human Story” series.
With a total surface area of 3,500m², the ephemeral, eco-responsible fresco entitled ” Un jeu d’enfant? ” was painted in 3 days using pigments derived from excavated earth.
In Annet-sur-Marne, Saype continues its "Human Story" series
After Switzerland, South Africa, Colombia and Burkina-Faso, Saype is now pursuing his “Human Story” series in Annet-sur-Marne, 35km from Paris. This emotionally-charged manifesto translates into imposing frescoes featuring men, women and children, coiled in grandiose landscapes to deliver a universal message.

A work that echoes ECT's circular economy approach
A public art project in the heart of suburban landscapes
Known for his grass paintings made with eco-friendly paint, Saype has been named by Forbes in 2019 as one of the 30 most influential people under thirty in the world, in the field of art and culture
Self-taught, he is considered the pioneer of a new land art movement, thanks to an innovative process that enables him to create gigantic frescoes on the ground, using 100% biodegradable paint.
His monumental works of art, both grandiose and sensitive, amaze and challenge. In 2019, he begins a worldwide project entitled “Beyond Walls”. Its ambition: to symbolically create the largest human chain in the world, in over 30 cities and over several years, inviting people to help each other, to be kind and to live together.
