Another Flag - Dia Tria Collective
2024

"Every piece of art that is created is political. It is political because we are social beings and no matter what we do, we cannot escape from reflecting our times" - Georgia Lale (December 2023 - No. 11, Kalo Mina News)
Another Flag is a solidarity act in response to the censorship imposed on visual artist Georgia Lale's artwork, 'Flag (2021)', by the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Another Flag seeks to collectively rebuild the fabric of a society that supports and empowers women and artists, challenging the existing patriarchy and advocating for gender equality.
This dynamic and healing synthesis of fabrics, words, textiles, chants, physical movements, and sounds serves as a profound form of protest against gender-based violence and the systemic suppression of artistic freedom. By engaging in this activist piece, attendees will join Dia Tria Collective in their mission to empower women and construct a safer world through collective artistic creation.
