The American Flag series, photographed from 1998 - 2003, led to three cross-country trips to photograph the display of the flag throughout the United States. The project encompasses the display of the flag by private individuals and the government, emotions communicated through the flag, and the American landscape and American life in the presence of the flag. Cassarino printed these images, made with large format and 35mm transparencies, on Cibachrome paper to portray the vibrancy of the flag and the vibrancy of American life.
