The Newspaper House

Artist Sumer Erek is building a house out of 60,000 newspapers as part of an art installation presented by Creative City in Gillett Square, east London.

By building a house out of free newspapers, Erek wants to associate the waste and ecological cost associated with the throw-away media. Members of the public are being invited to join in by writing messages on their own papers before adding them to the structure. This participation is encouraged to highlight the dependence of the public on the environment.
