For more than 35 years, the rainbow banner has was standing as a icon of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender pleasure and variety. Last year, using the rainbow banner as motivation, Cape Town-based designer Pierre le Riche designed Broederbond in an attempt to discover and to better understand the public issues that encompass homosexuality in his area and within Afrikaner lifestyle.
Through this set up, the specialist researches "the principles and principles of maleness in community, [and] also the resources of maleness in different societies." Broederbond is a little area set up to imitate a traditional Afrikaner living room area during the 1995 Rugby World Cup final—a significant moment in Southern Africa history.
Leaning on public generalizations, le Riche created a lgbt, rainbow-filled area straight juxtaposed with the "masculine" public Rugby coordinate. Surrounded by a rainbow layer, all of the areas within the area, such as the rugby balls clinging expense, are engrossed in more than 11 miles of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple polymer line. Through his work, le Riche wishes to ignite conversations about homosexuality and to advertise connections and brotherhood across societies.
