Imagined Territories is a self-initiated public artwork and citywide poster campaign unfolding across more than 20 sites and civic locations in Sheffield and Barnsley. From large-scale 48-sheet billboards to citywide poster placements, the work reimagines the flag as a symbol of connection rather than division — a flag for everyone, and for no one.

Across Britain, flags have become louder: raised on buildings, roundabouts and across our screens. The act of flying a flag has never felt more complex, shaping how we see ourselves and each other. Symbols once meant to unite are now used to divide. I grew up in a South Yorkshire mining town, not far from Manvers where riots broke out in 2024, but the sense of how a flag can hold pride and fear in the same breath came long before.
