Ideas for Flags Abound in the City of Hong Kong

In continuous search of patterns and meaningful designs for her photography hobby, Valentina Loffredo ends up finding inspirations for various international flags all around the city of Hong Kong. A picture she took for another project actually sparked the idea for her series ‘Flag It Up’ when she noticed her model, clad in red and posing against a white backdrop, resembled the Japanese flag. Since then, the right colors and geometrical shapes crop up in the most unexpected places and by strategically adding a person or another element within the space, a semblance of a flag reveals itself in the most creative way.
