Full Compliance (2024 -) traces the components, materialities and systems that feed into the production of the “Joint Strike Fighter Program”, actualised in the form of the F-35 fighter jet. Known as "the most advanced fighter jet in the world”, the F-35 is a key instrument in the zionist project's ongoing genocide of Palestine and sits at the cutting edge of the western imperialist military-industrial complex. 

Over 15% of every F-35 is made in the UK, where just a single part of the aircraft can determine the functionality of the entire programme. The work follows the flow of parts, revealing where British complicity surfaces and asking us to consider the disproportionate weight that each object carries – the implications of their seemingly inconsequential existences as parts of an instrument designed to kill.

Each inert element accumulates as part of an otherwise unseen landscape of violence. From digital renderings to UK production sites to banal office buildings in London nestled between cinemas and coffee shops, undetected by thousands of daily passers-by – these spaces are all connected by supply channels to history's first live-streamed holocaust.

Full Compliance poses timely questions about the immediate and ongoing consequences of the economic entanglements of Britain today, and the obfuscations that sustain them. By turning technologies back onto those implicated, the material/moral flow of components/complicity - from a factory‑floor bolt to a surveillance‑guided strike - is made clear. We’re asked to contemplate our proximity to 'war' right here, under skies free of the roar of fighter jets, rather than allowing it to remain abstract.
