This art exhibition blankets the National Mall with more than 670,000 white flags, showing the magnitude of our loss as a nation while honoring each person who has died from COVID-19.

Everybody has seen the constantly rising number of people who have died of COVID in the US – 688,000 as of September 26 -- and I think to a certain extent people have become numb to it. But seeing it represented so graphically reminds that the victims weren’t numbers but real people with families and lives and hopes and dreams and that they’re all gone now, in so many instances unnecessarily.

The flags stretched almost as far as the eye can see in several directions, and the sheer enormity of it was overwhelming.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.
