Brit Flag

This life-sized piece examines people's identity and loyalty when adopting a new country or nationality. 'From the distance all you can see is the Union Jack but closer up you can see the figures have different colours on their faces'. These colours (of the Nigerian and Jamaican flags) remember the black heritage of the figures.
