Windows of Christmas

Outdoor
Craft
Film
The festive season can feel suffocating with its endless stream of commercial messages urging you to buy more, more, more. This Christmas, the Church of Sweden launched a new campaign, told through the medium of painted church windows reimagined with scenes from modern life, reminding the public that the most important gift is to help others.

The hand-painted church windows were specifically crafted by glass artists at Dekormakarna, and physically used not only in film, but as custom-built outdoor units, conveying the message to Christmas shoppers in the middle of Stockholm.
