‘TIS THE SEASON TO GIVE A DAMN
Every Christmas, we see romanticised images of the ‘Holy Land’. Everything looks calm and peaceful. Yet today, the Middle East is ravaged by war. We brought this inconvenient reality to the fore with #RealityXmas - a set of Christmas cards designed to spark debate, provoke outrage, get petition signatures, and increase donations. Combining traditional nativity scenes with 2016 editorial war images, the cards spread across the world, gaining an unprecedented response, as well as being held up in Sunday service at the Syrian Orthodox Church and making the front page news in France on Christmas Day.
