PETA: Abandoned after Christmas

Staging a silent protest in the middle of Christmas.

Every year, animals are given as Christmas presents. But after the holidays, many become unwanted and are abandoned. 

We chose to make the public aware of this distressing truth, in the middle of the blissful pre-Christmas atmosphere, with installations representing every single abandoned animal.

Role | Concept, Art Direction

The online film was posted to PETA’s social channels on the run up to Christmas.


In addition to the physical installations and the resulting online film, we created some stills to prolong the project. These were used on social media, printed in some magazines and guerilla-marketed throughout Hamburg.
