Thanks to everyone who helped to ensure nine on seven was a success!!
You can now follow me here: SIMPLETOWN WORX




Flags are unique and powerful markers. 
They stake out spaces and occupy them boldly. 
Offering meaning and purpose on varying levels. 
Physically, geographically, socially, personally.
The visual language applied through flags can 
Unite or divide 
Invite or repel 
Include or exclude
They signify semiotically an intention or an idea, concisely.
The exhibition FLAG LIFTING brings together Marcus Keating, Kasia Lynch and SIMPLETOWN WORX in an examination of the phenomena of flags.
