Meet The World

Posted on June 28, 2005 Under Art

Icaro Doria, a Brazilian designer, has done some amazing graphic interpretations of common flag designs for countries around the world. They’re incredibly evocative, comparing sections of each color on the flags to segments of their population. The campaign is called Meet The World, and has been running in Portugal since January. There are eight flags finished, and portray topics like the divisions about the war in Iraq (shown here), the violence against women in africa, social inequality in brazil, and more. I found this just in time for President Bush’s address to the nation tonight regarding “the war” Iraq.
