FLAG METAMORPHOSES - a participatory art project. The growing series contains 40 Flash animations by 30 international artists and teams so far. Each animation starts with a flag and ends with a different one. The flags are transformed, their shapes and meanings are morphed into other symbols and figures. Each contributing artist creates an animation with flags of his/her own choice and expresses a relation between two (or more) countries in his/her own way.

Flag Metamorphoses is an exploration into the meaning of imagery on flags, aiming to create interrelated associations through questioning, reassessing, fluidizing and re-mixing diverse national iconographies. This project encourages you to think in images, to understand and express cultural and historical processes and relations without words. Symbols of identities turn into elements of dialogues.
