Site-specific installation displayed on the roof terrace of the art initiative Beirut in Cairo/Egypt during the second anniversary of the Egyptian Revolution. The installation consists of seven flags with cut-out circles in their centre, it refers to revolutionary moments in post WWII history, i.e. in Hungaria, Iran or Romania, when people took certain symbols off the national flags, in a way to symbolize the abandoning of a former regime. The cut-out circles in the flags can be also understood as a cut through time in an undefined moment, a time in-between, when past and present change their meaning.
