Flag-Waving Fun
2023
 

Flag-Waving Fun investigates Americana, spectacle, and the things we choose to celebrate. Developed against an increasingly cynical cultural backdrop, the project moves deliberately in the opposite direction—toward optimism, play, and exuberance.

​

Drawing from the familiar language of pageantry and popular culture, the work embraces whimsy and naïve intuition while pushing those traditions somewhere stranger and more flamboyant. The idea is simple: I’m not interested in simply celebrating our culture; I want to throw a party for it.
