## Ọrụ ndị e mere n'oge na-adịbeghị anya
In 2015 MOCA, Los Angeles presented *Trinket*, the largest solo museum presentation of Pope.L's work to date. The centerpiece of the show is *Trinket*, a monumental, custom-made American flag (approximately 54 x 16 feet) hanging on a pole in the middle of the Geffen. During the museum's public hours the flag will be continuously blown by four large-scale industrial fans — the type used on Hollywood film sets to create wind or rain effects — and will be illuminated from below by a bank of custom theatrical lights. Over time the flag will appear to fray at its ends due to the constant whipping of the forced air, a potent metaphor for the rigors and complexities of democratic engagement and participation. *Trinket* was originally produced in 2008 at Grand Arts, in Kansas City, Mo., as the centerpiece of Pope.L's exhibition  Animal Nationalism.
