In 2008, the artist worked with many participants to craft approximately 1000 paper airplanes printed with text from the Geneva Conventions and the International Declaration of Human Rights. The original piece, titled “Descent” was exhibited in Los Angeles as part of that year’s Fellowship award (COLA). Since then, the airplanes have travelled—to the United Nations in New York, overseas to Norway, to Terminal 3 at LAX, and other locations in the US. Each installation is it’s own unique piece specific to that site, using the airplanes as the medium. Like warriors, they have battle scars; evidence of their travels that contribute to their character.
