The piece-art / flag “TWO” is the form of notes from the times of lock-down. The symbol on the flag is a drawing from the textile.
The drawing represents a familiar sign, in frequent use throughout Polish history, of two fingers outstretched in a gesture of victory, with marked distance between the fingers. The symbol reflects the frustration and helplessness numerous residents of countries throughout the world were plunged into during the pandemic. On the one hand, we felt the need to protest, one the other, this was practically impossible. As many authorities around the world treat the pandemic regime instrumentally, citizens also treat the suggested safe distance instrumentally.
The flags were presented before at: Biennale of Warsaw. Arsenal Gallery in Bialystok and Poznan, European Solidarity Center in Gdansk.

More than 30 projects by artists who rethink the place of art in the public space, its civic or social role and the possibilities it creates to rethink, resist, challenge and drive new ways of meeting, using or being together in the public space.
