Christmas Greeting from Dubai by Khalid Mezaina

Happy Christmas / Season's Greetings to everyone celebrating today. I personally don't celebrate Christmas, but had to share this illustration made by my brother Khalid Mezaina to mark the occasion.
...when coming up with an artwork to mark the occasion, I thought it would be fun to reference my current interests in old neighborhoods in Dubai.
I quickly thought of the trolley handlers who move heaps of items from place to place. To me, they're like little santas dropping off presents to all the grownups around the neighborhood.
