It's very refreshing to see that kind of sculpture been done without computer
controlled machinery.
It was good fun - you can see from the second photo that I hung knotted ropes from the rafters so I had something to hold on to while climbing around on top, without falling off all the time - it gets very slippery as it nears completion.
I based the earthwork roughly on the Cretan labyrinth

Just distorted, simplified and elongated the shape. I did this in Bryce

(you can see why I asked Dune to do the 3D images of the earthwork now, I've never been able to get to grips with CG 3D except in the most basic way)
The labyrinth was meant to be formed by earth and stone walls, but the Parks Department had a lot of bad earth, spoil from roadworks that they wanted to get rid of, so I was
persuaded that I didn't really want walls, I wanted terraces
