Flag New York City

11 SAMMY ENG RAME R A flag contract (welcome to Nesflaten Community!)

In November 2012 I came to Nesflaten, Norway to do a residency organized by the French institution ArtConnexion, and was hosted by L/R Residency.

During fifteen days I met different people to understand what kind of possibilities I had to propose a new symbol and flag for the community there. The result is a traditional coat of arms mixed with modern industry, using graphic tools to animate different activities taking place in Nesflaten. Now the flag is arriving New York, and represents the Nesflaten community to a new and larger audience.

Sammy Engramer (b.1968, Blois, France) lives and works in Tours, France. Influenced by the heroes of the famous and unfinished Gustave Flaubert book Bouvard and Pécuchet, Engramer learns different practices and tries to have a global experience.

Exhibitions include; L’important c’est de participer; Le Bol Gallery, Orléans, France; European Think Tank, ESA Gallery, Tourcoing, France and Objet du XXe, Claudine Papillon Gallery, Paris, France to mention a few.
