French-Swiss artist Saype continues enthralling the world with his ambitious “Beyond Walls” project, which aims to create the largest global symbolic human chain. This project, initiated in 2019 in Paris, uses biodegradable pigments to paint massive, intertwined hands, symbolizing unity and solidarity.

Saype has chosen the Pyramids of Giza for the twentieth installment, an iconic site representing eternity. This location highlights the beauty of the ancient structures and renews the dialogue between the past and present. Saype’s eco-friendly art connects civilizations and promotes values of togetherness and mutual aid.

Regarding his project at Giza, Saype remarked, “This encounter between ephemeral art and millennia-old constructions symbolizes the continuity and interconnection of humanity through time.” His work emphasizes the importance of kindness and unity in a polarized world, using art as a bridge across cultures and epochs.
The “Beyond Walls” project has traveled to various locations, including Brazil, Japan, and South Africa, each time bringing a commentary on human connection and environmental responsibility.
