This year, we’re turning our Christmas tree into a gallery for artworks by leading lights. Figures kiss under the mistletoe on these shatter-proof baubles, hand-painted by British-Nigerian artist Sola Olulode, known for her wistful images celebrating Black identity, womxnhood, non-binary people and queer love. Who doesn’t love a little romance at Christmas time?
