French artists Ella & Pitr addresses the gravity of the global refugee crisis in her latest mural, Le Naufrage de Bienvenu. The gigantic outdoor work reaches more than 47 meters and occupies the entire length of the piney dam at La Valla-En Gier, Rhone-Alpes, France.

The project took 10 days to be finalized.
