Series of flags and zines about flagging objects
Queer flagging is a coded language used by queer people to let others know that you’re queer; through the power of subtly. Everyday objects are assigned meaning based on their placement, colour, or combination. While these objects are still worn, the meanings are not always tied to the objects any more as they enter mainstream fashion. Unsubtle is an attempt at documenting what these objects once meant, what they occasionally still do and recording this method of communication for future generations.
