WASP Regime Flags
artwork series
A series of 10 fictitious flags exploring the ongoing Christian Nationalist conversation in the United States. These flags blend elements of U.S. military flags with those from the Nazi regime. The stars and swastikas have been replaced with gold crosses to symbolize the Christian influences that guided and guide policies in both regimes. Additionally, eagles have been substituted with wasps, serving as a visual and symbolic representation of WASP (White Anglo-Saxon Protestant) culture, which emphasizes characteristics of white supremacy. These provocative objects are neutral in essence, intended to spark self reflection, conversation, inspire action, and motivate change.
Is not ICE, it's I E
Regime Enforcement
This work examines how violence rarely announces itself. Across centuries, systems of control have emerged not through immediate brutality, but through legal means, symbols, and language that render certain bodies provisional. History repeats through structure: when institutions begin policing existence rather than behavior, and legality functions as a "moral" shield, the trajectory becomes legible.
The objects operate as witnesses. By grafting a single “S” (a residue of historical terror) onto familiar symbols, the work suggests not equivalence, but continuity of logic. Flags, garments, and insignia reappear as tools that erase individuality and transform fear into policy. They mark the point at which cruelty becomes commonplace, and certain lives are rendered expendable.
