The origin story of the white flags.

Special recyclable film was manufactured to catch the light. At first, I wanted biodegradable film, but inevitably, I wanted the dedicated flags to live on.

Blackburn Manufacturing Company was an incredible partner by manufacturing over 700k flags in just a few days. Three different states housed the material/flags before they arrived at the National Mall at dawn.

Each flag in the installation memorializes a loved one lost to COVID. They are to be preserved as we continue our journey as a country in grief. Message us here to volunteer in Bethesda, MD in the ongoing effort to document and archive each flag.
