Octopus ad becomes visible only when it rains
Official description:
FRESH GREEN ADS has developed a RAINCAMPAIGN for SEA LIFE Scheveningen. Every time it rains the octopus of SEA LIFE Scheveningen appears on the streets and out of public drains and man-hole covers with its tentacles holding the text: "SEA LIFE laat je niet meer los" (SEA LIFE never lets you go). When the streets dry up the RAINCAMPAIGN disappears again.
In a surprising way the people in the streets are drawn to the wonderful world of SEA LIFE Scheveningen when it rains. When the streets dry up the octopus disappears again. These striking and environmentally friendly messages remain visible up to eight weeks.
