“Espectro do Vermelho” appropriates and distorts the form and the meaning of flags, weaving a critique in regard to patriotism and the abstract idea of nationhood, society, and the representation of the community by way of a symbol. Ianês compares this strategy to that of using a single word to describe unequal or contradictory objects. The flags of the 26 Brazilian states, along with that of the Federal District, were reproduced with red fabric, and their emblems were also embroidered in red, thus distorting and decharacterizing their political content.
