Ahmed Al Bahrani, Flag of Glory, 2019

Bronze
Ahmed Al Bahrani (b. 1965, Iraq)
Ahmed Al Bahrani’s Flag of Glory is an iconic representation of a forceful nation. The artist’s figurative and monumental skills capture the movement of the grasping hands. As one hand supports the other, they unitedly raise the flag with an unstoppable force.
This sculpture embodies the spirit of National Day for all citizens of Qatar, celebrating, honouring and commemorating the leadership of Qatar, and its people: Dar Al’iz, Tamim Al Majd, and Hamad Al Khair. It also glorifies the burgundy colour not only seen in the flag, but also the burgundy that runs through all our veins.
Al Bahrani’s sculpture is a declaration and a testimony to the way in which the country of Qatar embraces race, culture and gender in an impartial manner and honours its people, as Qataris and non-Qataris alike.
