Notes: This sculpture was located on the former site of a local organic food and native plant garden. The garden was bulldozed because it was perceived as ‘messy' by unnamed faculty members. The sculpture was constructed out of paper bricks and functioned as a wireless internet kiosk and a monument to the lost garden. After the sculpture was abandoned the SRNE identified it as an excellent candidate for a small re-natural habitat.

*Site completely destroyed by bulldozing. It has been returned to its original state as an underutilized, frequently mowed site.
