PETALING JAYA: Lithuanian artist Ernest Zacharevic is taking legal action against AirAsia for using his iconic mural of children on a bicycle, painted in Penang, as livery on one of its aircraft without his consent.
In a Facebook post titled “AirAsia Update: It’s Time to Talk”, Zacharevic said the airline’s final offer failed to “reflect the value” of his work, despite his efforts to seek an amicable resolution. He added that AirAsia also failed to address repeated unauthorised use of his artwork in its promotional materials.
