Originally sponsored by Chartwell TrustAfter a full day of installation at Te Henga/Bethells Beach, the flags were removed from the beach and reinstalled in Shed 6 (warehouse located in the center of Auckland City).
Contained in an enclosed space, they stand motionless, in stark contrast to their previous location, forming a concise comment about the kinds of freedom available to works in public spaces in contrast with installation in private controlled spaces.
Flags were removed because Auckland City Council gave only one day of permission to make the installation at Te Henga/Bethells Beach, originally was planned to keep the flags installed for 3 weeks.
