Unspecific Gravity (bio science)

   

Located north of the Engineering buildings is Unspecific Gravity, another sculpture in our public art collection. This "molecule garden" contains a reflecting pool and numerous circular, terrazzo benches. Each bench displays the atomic structure of one of the eleven most common elements (iron, carbon, etc.). The reflecting pool is recognizable by the chromed copper water molecules extending upwards from the center (we call them the Mickey Mouse ears). Artist Doug Hollis constructed Unspecific Gravity to combine elements of chemistry and marine biology. Unspecific Gravity is bordered by our Bio Science and Chemistry buildings.
