F2 Typhoon Eurofighter

The paperbacks are stacked and glued in piles to a height of approx 40 cm. 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 books 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 Libya, the Falkland Islands and Albania. Visitors can approach and touch the piece from all sides.

27 x 450 x 500 cm
