Home Drone:
A Public Art "Intervention"
Under construction: an 18-foot, rhinestone-encrusted replica drone.
Rochester artists Heather Layton and Brian Bailey collaborated on the construction of a "social intervention" art installation, designed to foster discussion and reflection on the impact of remote war technology using unmanned drones.
