the way that i perceived the reading for our spring break project is the following: the american flag has always been a symbol for our countrys values and morals, but over the years, it has also become a canvas in which to portray messages. it is in this way that i went forward with my flag project. i wanted to make a very obvious political message about the state of our domestic affairs. what better way to portray this than to paint our american flag, on a domestic plate, in the middle of my american neighborhood. smashed to pieces.
