An emblem of uprising against the ruling class that promotes a vision of a shared belief system, Rad Hourani’s flags appropriate the symbol of those in power to magnify the voice of those oppressed through division. Comparable to the powerful tool that both categorizes and stirs loyalty for the purpose of serving propaganda flair, his flags are quilted into a banner to appear as though they were created by a fictional united humanity. Paying homage to our tendencies in seeking belongingness within groups of everyday society, by means of forming religions and cults, these banners allow for individuals to ascend as their own ruler by contributing to their collective sense of unity.
