Made in China

2023, 34" X 60", 100% Cotton

“Made in China,” 2023, by Keith Francis. This artwork consists of an authentic 100% cotton American flag (34 x 60 in.) that was manufactured in China. Embroidered across the red and white stripes in prominent yellow block lettering are the words “MADE IN CHINA.” The piece serves as a poignant commentary on the trade deficit, globalized consumerism, and the loss of domestic manufacturing jobs.
