Boat camouflaged as a rock speeds past the French coast
A French artist has created an incredible camouflaged boat that masquerades as a floating rock.
Julien Berthier, 46, from Paris, used mostly polystyrene and epoxy resin to transform an old vessel into what appears to be a rock formation that has come away from the coast around Marseille, France.
Mind-bending footage recorded in June shows the boat - aptly named 'L'invisible', or 'The Invisible' – moving into the Mediterranean Sea as onlookers record the vessel on their phones in astonishment.
Mr Berthier is famous for his outlandish creations, having created a 'permanently sinking boat' in 2010 which was a fully operational vessel despite appearing half-sunken in the water.
His latest project began in September 2020 but due to Covid restrictions the six weeks of solid work was broken up, meaning the boat was only launched in June this year.
The artist, from Paris, said: 'I wanted to create something that intruded on the landscape as little as possible.
'As an artist these days everything can be about being as loud as possible, to stand out as much as possible on Instagram and social media.
