      I think The Uncensored Library project is pretty cool.

      Created by the organization Reporters without Borders and the Minecraft design collective BlockWorks, this blocky book bastion was first introduced in 2020 to provide silenced authors a platform in their own respective countries. While social media and other platforms tend to be either blocked or controlled in these countries, Minecraft often remains accessible, giving Reporters without Borders a way to circumvent the censorship and make information accessible.

      The library itself is accessed through a Minecraft server but can also be downloaded locally from their website. It consists of around 300 books distributed between twelve wings, most of them represented by a country where information may be limited. From here, visitors can explore the library and read banned articles in the form of Minecraft books.

      As depicted in the op, they make artistic sculptures/scenery that amaze people.
