On the 20th anniversary of #WorldRefugeeDay, artist Yara Said reflects on the flag she designed to signal survival, resilience, and agency.

#YaraSaid’s design for the Refugee Flag, which was carried by a team of refugee athletes at the 2016 Rio Olympics, draws inspiration from orange life vests and her personal experience of crossing the sea from Turkey to Greece. “The flag is supposed to form a life vest when wrapped around the body, offering the audience a brief moment of association,” she said.

We recognize World Refugee Day as an opportunity to raise awareness of the millions of refugees worldwide who are forced into exile because of natural disaster, persecution, conflict and war. Read Arièle Dionne-Krosnick’s interview with Yara Said at the link in our bio.
