LEE MCDONALD, Starfighter taking off from roof, 2021
This is 'Test 2001' where an airplane made of cardboard boxes and lashing straps is pushed from a roof to see how far it could land.
Self-destructive work is a common theme in Lee McDonald's work, with a cheerful undertone never far away. Although making a plan that in practice turns out differently than expected, it often leads to a surprise and in all cases makes you think about the action.
