This site-specific installation aims to draw attention to an oft-unnoticed element of Building 5: the structural column.  The simplicity of the column belies its incredible importance.  Hundreds of students pass by it on their way between studio and the bathroom, but save for the occasional flyer, no one spares the column a second glance.  The installation is a representation of the potential fracturing of the column, an event that would be sure to capture everyone's attention.
