Burtonwood & Holmes

Burtonwood & Holmes, PRODUCT placement, 2006

I was reading Make (as is my wont) and saw an entry about artists Burtonwood & Holmes, and their latest installation, PRODUCT placement, a tank made from junk mail and cardboard. From their website:

Burtonwood (UK) and Holmes (USA) have been working collaboratively since 1999. Through painting, sculpture and installation Burtonwood and Holmes are resolved to produce work that challenges received notions about war and militarism. In particular they are keen to stress the economic imperative for war is key to understand how conflicts start and why they continue.
