Above is Matt Hope's sculpture Idea: http://matthope.org/2009/02/large-scale-projects/

In looking at my cohort, Matt's large scale sculpture ideas (http://matthope.org/2009/02/large-scale-projects/), I decided that even large scale is not enough. I want to make "Great" artwork that rivals the Great Wall in China.

Can call them, the Great Pieces: Great Chair, Great Floor, Great Forest, Great Great, Great Tunnels, Great Grandma, Great Fire, Great Moat, Great River, Great Cube, Great Sphere.

The test of these pieces is that they must be visible from standard space shuttle orbit in space.

'''Take the Greatness challenge. Only few will ever be able to make something visible from space.'''
