Flag #18 Painting

I come from a family of textile makers over generations, and I have been collecting fabrics ( most created in a factory in the town I grew up in ) for a long time. Many of them are overdies created in the printing process in the factory and sold off as scrap. I have always found these ‘accidents’ beautiful and have treasured them as works of art in their own rights. Some years ago I began working with the fabrics to create flags as a way of exploring their South and trying to express a sense of patriotism. Patriotism displayed using simple homely products. With a home made, crafted look. Symbolically they represent what South Africa is, a mixture of cultures some beautiful some not so, some pristine some used and broken, all coming together to form a beautiful symphony or poetic whole.
