In celebration of International Unicorn Day (April 9), cosmetics brand Merci Handy collaborated with French street artist John Hamon to transform the Eiffel Tower into a unicorn! Hamon, who is known for this kind of artistic performance, also projected his portrait reinterpreted as a unicorn. Its emblematic symbol had previously appeared in the Paris metro in 2017, as well as via a fly-posting campaign in 2018 (10,000 “Lost Unicorn” posters had been put up in Paris).

Hamon, who is known for this kind of artistic performance, has previously projected his portrait on numerous Paris monuments, among them the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe.

Check out the video below to see the incredible transformation:
