Banksy in Christmas version turns a homeless man into Santa Claus with reindeer


Banksy’s new foray, posted today on his Instagram profile, which has now become an official vehicle for broadcasting new content about the British street artist. This time, the 45-year-old from Bristol moved to Birmingham, where he painted a pair of reindeer next to the bench of a homeless man (named Ryan) to transform the bench into a sleigh and the homeless man into Santa Claus. All documented in a few-second video, in which the man pops open a soda and lies down on his makeshift bed as cars whiz down the street.

“God bless Birmingham,” Banksy wrote to comment on the video. “In the twenty minutes during which we filmed Ryan on this bench, passers-by gave him a hot drink, soft drinks and a lighter, without him asking for anything.”

Pictured is Banksy’s new work.
