Which Banksy artwork was painted on a wall in Port Talbot in 2018?

The story behind the answer

Banksy’s 2018 Port Talbot wall artwork was titled Season’s Greetings.

The mural appeared on two sides of a garage in Port Talbot, Wales, in December 2018. From one angle, a child appears to be catching falling snow on the tongue. From the other, the flakes are revealed to be ash from a burning skip or dumpster, turning a cheerful winter scene into a comment on industrial pollution.

Port Talbot is known for its large steelworks, and residents connected the image with the town’s industrial environment. Banksy confirmed authorship by posting photographs and video of the mural on his official social media accounts.

The work is frequently described informally as “the Port Talbot mural” or “the snow and ash mural.” Those descriptions identify the image but are not its title. Season’s Greetings refers to the seasonal presentation that initially disguises the environmental message.
