From an unknown but extremely limited edition. The adhesive label with details of the fictional medicine "Ocomeall Faithful" shows the lyrics of the Christmas carol "O come all, ye faithful" instead of the ingredients. The oversized pill box was part of the tree decoration for the public Christmas tree at the Conaught Hotel in London from 2015. The artist chose to use pills, syringes, and other medical objects, which he declared to be symbols of hope.
