Pledges of Allegiance

Don’t Worry Be Angry reflects the roots of much of British artist Jeremy Deller's socio-political artwork, focusing on people, icons, myths, folklore, and cultural histories. He weaves together the high and low, popular and esoteric to create unique and thought-provoking work. The inclusion of the smiley faces makes this flag look positive, humorous and familiar, while at the same time encouraging us to stay engaged.
