In 2002 Mark Napier became one of the first artists commissioned by a major museum to create an online work for its collection.

net.flag, a public space/art project by Mark Napier, contains a constantly changing user-generated symbol of online nationhood. Any visitor can change the flag by choosing and arranging pieces of the international flags. Each flag lasts minutes, hours, or days until the next visitor alters or overwrites it.

net.flag is an ongoing online project

Mark Napier exhibits and sells limited edition prints of select individual flags from his net.flag project.
