Flag For A Future Present
Mylar flag available in various sizes. 
2012

This flag is meant to fly between Memorial Day and Flag Day of each year to mark the time between when we mourn our dead soldiers and celebrate the symbols of American nationalism. This flag is meant to literalize a moment of reflection. When the Flag For A Future Present is raised its metallic surface throws back the image of its surroundings, allowing one to think about the land around us, the site that frames a flag. Additionally, the flag metaphorically asks one to reflect on their own image, their own subjective position in the landscape.
