30 Proposals of Flag

2009 - Installation (Installation)

Jao Chia-En


30 Proposals of Flag explores the relationships between signs, meanings, aesthetics, and nations. The artwork consists of 30 flags layered together and hanging from the ceiling. Each flag is illustrated with Jao’s rendition of a possible coat of arms derived from Taiwan’s economic and political history.


Chia-En Jao’s artwork approaches issues of identity, political regimes, coded sign systems, and his own experiences as a migrant. He works in a variety of media, including video, installation, projection, and two- and three-dimensional work. He studied at the Taipei National University of the Arts in Taipai (2000), the École Nationale Supérieur des Beaux-Arts in Paris (2004), and Goldsmiths College in London (2007).
