“Seisme 12 Janvier 2010” Beaded Drapo
Roudy Azor (Port-au-Prince, Haiti)

This stunning secular flag was created as a memorial to the 2010 earthquake, on the occasion of it’s fourth anniversary. The flag is extremely densely beaded and sequinned (and thus extremely heavy), in the manner of the artists Constant and Simeon.
