White Flags - Aaron Fein Aaron Fein conceived the idea of an entire world comprised of white flags in the months following 9/11. He observed how all the American flag bumper stickers – our symbol of permanence and comfort after the attacks - began to lose their color in a slow, but inevitable fade to white. He says, "I wondered whimsically with a tinge of grief, if more than just the differences in our flags could fade away, ultimately rendering a more united world." |
