Brett Bloom – “11 Million Person Tower Island”

11 Million Person Tower Island as imagined by Brett Bloom, One of fifteen islands fabricated by Greg Sholette based on ideas proposed by invited collaborators, Mixed media (paper, sand, plastic, wire, resin), 2012

Greg,

Thanks for the invitation. Can you make a tower for the 11 million people of NY to be moved to so all the land can be given back to the native folks who used to live there? This would have to be a very large tower, and maybe won’t work. Let me know what you think of the idea.

- Brett
