MyIslandFlag for the DMZ
○
“If there were flags in the DMZ, what would they look like?” The 4km-wide, 240km-long buffer known as the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) slashes across the peninsula, separating North and South Korea. Lined on both sides by tank traps, electric fences, landmines and armies in full battle readiness, it’s a sinister place where the tension is palpable. But where people are unable to go, the DMZ has become an unexpected haven for rare wildlife. This peace and life zone represents my values as a Korean. The fluorescent green colour expresses that the area is unrealistic, and the circle fence shows the boundary between creatures and the DMZ."
