Work of art I would like to make

In 2002 the ship "The World" was built in Norway by Fosen Mek. Verksteder A/S. "The World" is a traveling version of our world that includes everything from a full size tennis court to a grocery store.
I would base my work on this idea. If in 2008 there is already a ship version of our world then what would it be like in 25 years time? Due to our society ruining our real world we have to escape to another! My work would include four large canvases, 3m x 3m, because society demands everything to be bigger!
I would take a humourous approach into showing just how 'convenient' society will be. For example man will even conduct his emotions through technology!
I will create four monstrous characters that i assure will exist in 25 years time!
