F2 (Typhoon) Eurofighter

By  Rosie Leventon 2014 - 2024
An installation made from carved recycled paperbacks In the centre the books are carved by hand so that the pages and print are visible, to form a concave curve from the top of the pile to the floor. As the curved surface reaches the floor it dissolves into paper dust. The whole forms a negative relief of a multi-role combat aircraft currently deployed in countries such as Yemen, Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq and Albania. Visitors can touch the piece from all sides
