Southland Times - NZ Flag Artists

Posted 16th February 2014



Sir,
Years ago I put forward my own design for a reboot of the New Zealand Flag because I thought it was fun to get our Artists to think about
What our National Identity could look like as a singular creative statement, It’s nice that the Media gave our creative community a chance  to
Show off their Skills, it seems a waste not to put these designs to use perhaps as Celebration Flags or even Postage Stamps.

Sad the Question of Political Manipulation Came up because of the looming election date. I dose seem Odd though that the Design of our Money is not up for
Public Scrutiny or any Artistic Competition, It has been stuck in the 1990s and there are other Great New Zealanders who could be given a turn to be on our Notes.

It’s good to give our Artists something to think about.
