VIEW THE CONCEPT Oil paintings spread the message On October 5, New Zealand suffered its worst ever maritime environmental disaster.The MV Rena cargo ship ran aground and spilled 350 tonnes of oil into the Bay of Plenty, killing 20,000 birds. As tragic as that was, a deep sea oil spill could be over 1000 times worse.* The New Zealand government has opened its waters to foreign oil companies for deep sea oil prospecting. They promised that it would be safe and that they could control any environmental impact from an oil spill. But if we couldn't control a small spill on the surface of the water, how will we ever hope to stop a massive spill 3kms below it? To emphasise the risks of deep-sea oil, Greenpeace asked Mojo Auckland to use the smaller scale Rena oil spill as an example. We created hundreds of posters and 10 canvas artworks using the oil covered bodies of birds killed during the disaster as a memorial and a warning against a much greater catastrophe.

But for many, the true meaning of Christmas has all but been forgotten. WhybinTBWA were tasked with reacquainting people with this lost tradition. Their solution was to create a piece of art. Resembling an oil painting, it shows The Virgin Mary at the exact moment the impossible happened. With pregnancy test in hand, she looks on in disbelieve as two small pink lines appear before her. In the true spirit of Christmas people shared the image, as did national TV networks and newspapers, spreading the story of Mary and her positive test far and wide. You can't make people go to church, so TBWA took the church to the people.VIEW OUTDOOR Destiny is calling with Carlton DryGuest judge: Steve Coll, ECD, Euro RSCG, Sydney
