Flag (Hudson) 2015 portrays a segment of the Hudson River near the Chelsea piers in Manhattan.
Flag (Thames) 2016 portrays a segment of the Thames River near the Palace of Westminster.
The river colours are digitally recreated, alongside buildings and trees on the riverbanks present as reflections. At the centre of the scene, a gasoline spill is simulated – accurately refracting the light to create a vivid prismatic field, endlessly shifting shape over time. The viewpoint circles this form while the work unfolds over a 365 day solar cycle of night and day. The soft undulation of the waves animates the scene, giving rise to the title of the work.
