I think it goes deeper than that, he made the model out of cotton buds to symbolise the grating voice's effect on the inner ear, and the disposable nature of those we deem the 'little people'. The sellotape he used represents the societal glue that holds these norms together.

I was at a sci-fi convention, sitting off to the side, working on a sewing project. Some guy comes over and said "I'm looking for room 17B, do you know where that is? Where does this door go?" Unfortunately, I had no idea where that room was, or where the door went. I was just looking for a quiet spot away from the crowds. Yup, that guy was Wallace Shawn. He was scheduled to speak at an event in and couldn't find it.
