#clowngender

clowns and similar figures exist in several indigenous nations across the world, notably the koshare from pueblo communities, and the lakota heyoka. these figures often perform during ceremonies or other dances not just to entertain, but to teach important lessons through stories as well as perform medicine and portray balance. within the flag i chose to use colors from the medicine wheel, a important symbol seen in many indigenous nations, as well as patterns from weavings and pottery

clowngender is often represented by being an androgynous gender which is related to the colors, aesthetics, and culture of clowns and clowning. one may feel similar to a clown, engage or work as a clown, or enjoy the aesthetics of clowns. within the flag i included bright colors and patterns reminiscent of collars and hats often associated with clowns and jesters

the black and blue stripe represents self expression, understanding, and acceptance

the red stripe represents joy and happiness that ones identity brings

the orange stripe represents gender nonconformity

the yellow stripe represents connection to one’s heritage and nation

the green, white, and purple stripe represents interconnectedness of ones identities within being indigenous and clowns
