Walk on the NZ Flag and It's 'art'

Try that with a Pride Flag and It's a 'hate crime'"

An art gallery in Nelson is proudly displaying a piece that invites you to walk all over the New Zealand flag. That’s right – "Please Walk On Me" is boldly stencilled onto the national symbol, lying beneath a symbolic flax tripod in Diane Prince’s reworked 1995 piece Flagging the Future. And somehow, this is all okay in the name of “art”.
