Season\u2019s Greetings<\/em>, a comment on the impact of pollution on communities, appeared\u2026.on 19 December 2018.<\/p>\n

The mural depicts a child enjoying what he thinks is snow on one side, while the other half reveals it is actually ash from a bin fire.<\/p>\n

Local dealer John Brandler then bought the artwork and removed the walls to an empty shop unit in the town.<\/p>\n

But an agreement to keep it there has expired and Mr Brandler will now move the artwork out of Wales to an undisclosed location.<\/p>\n

Mr Brandler said: \u201cSince Season\u2019s Greetings<\/em> appeared three years ago, fanatics have tried to destroy this amazing piece of art. We\u2019re moving it to preserve it for future generations, where it can be seen and enjoyed, but not vandalised.\u201d<\/p>\n

London firm Egg Group now has the responsibility of relocating it\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026. The writing was on the wall for this important piece of art, so we stepped in with a creative solution and designed a protective eggshell enabling Banksy\u2019s Season\u2019s Greetings to be returned to the public safely.\u201d<\/p>\n
