‘I fly like paper get high like planes’ by dawn ng, 2009
‘I fly like paper get high like planes’ is a sculptural installation by artist dawn ng that is composed of
hundreds of paper airplanes. the project is based on ng’s interest in the concept of home and the
associated feelings of nostalgia and the desire to leave. the identical paper airplanes emanate from
a single window, bursting out in a series of streams. ng’s intent is to visually and physically
overwhelm the viewer to recreate the powerful feelings she has for home.

maybe also useful to know that it's a lyric from a song by m.i.a., "paper planes".

nice one! well done Dawn Ng :)

Very good.....I don't think she 'misinterpreted' the lyric though, I'm sure understood what it meant. I think she's just taking an idea and turning it into something new - isn't that what art is after all.
