The piece is made from safety reflective fabric that under normal lighting conditions appears to be a simple black rectangle. The act of taking a flash photo however reveals an American flag in glowing hyper-colors. It comes alive “almost like a peacock”, says the artist, a metaphor for his native country’s social and militaristic bravado.
