Futurenormal Lands In London

The Vegan Society recently took over an entire 47 by 23 foot (14.45m x 6.9m) wall in a popular street in East London, unveiling a huge one-of-a-kind mosaic.

In an attempt to get people to reflect on their attitudes to non-human animals and consider going vegan, the gigantic billboard, installed on Holywell Lane in Shoreditch, is part of the society’s Future Normal campaign, the charity’s biggest campaign to date.

Seeking to create a much kinder future for all animals, the overall image on the billboard is of a dog and their carer, a young girl, but on closer inspection the mosaic is made up of thousands of small images of rehomed, rescued farmed and sanctuary animals.

After the unveiling, Mark Banahan, Campaigns Manager for The Vegan Society said: “This is an incredibly powerful image that you just can’t miss, and that’s exactly what we wanted. We know the world is getting ready to go back to normal but we want people to reconsider what that ‘future normal’ in a post-pandemic world looks like, particularly in relation to the way we view and treat animals.”

If we’re open to making changes in our lives, the Future Normal is a place we can create. Being vegan simply means living in line with the ethics that so many of us already hold in our hearts.

The billboard, created and installed by Horizon Outdoor, is the first commercial display in the UK to use Kavalan PVC-free vinyl – a sustainable and environmentally-friendly material – which was sourced specifically for this campaign.
