World's News Press Knit the sheep

.EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED.

We read news (paper) everyday.

In the headlines or through out the columns we have
the same event-spreading knowing and understanding.

news (paper) play a big role.

-Dolly-
In 1996 the fist cloned sheep is born to this world.
In 1997 after the reveal from Dr. Ian in Edinburgh,
the news has been reported in hundred of different
languages in many countries in the world afterwards.

I went to the British News Library in Colindale and
decided to collect all the news paper that had reports
about Dolly which published between 1997 and 2007.

After 4 days working , I finally gathered news paper
from The UK/The US/Canada/Japan/Taiwan/Russia
Australia/India/Singapore/Malaysia/France/n'Abrab.

Then I found out there are many news paper I cant read.
Because of the language.

The only thing that I could read through out all different
news paper is the images , the Dolly's images. Especially
the article always came along with an image of Dolly beside
the text. Sometimes different newspaper even had the same
pictures with the Dolly in that. Therefore I used the pictures
from different news paper trying to shape a sheep figure and
of course , it is Dolly .
