Fifty I see the American flag not as a fixed symbol, but as something unstable. The stars—meant to represent the 50 states—have fallen out of place. They sit at the bottom of a clear case. Still visible, but no longer holding together. This piece comes from a growing unease with the gap between what America says it is and what it’s become. The fallen stars point to that breakdown—loss of trust, strain on democracy, and a sense that things aren’t holding. It’s both a kind of marker and a warning: when symbols are no longer backed by action, they start to lose their meaning.
