Building 28 of the College of Natural Sciences, which was completed in 1976, is where SNU’s history and spirit are enshrined. A representative example is its lobby, newly designed with the theme of “upcycling” when the building gave way to reconstruction in 2020. In this volume, we introduce two works of art: a piece created by assembling clay plates made from earth taken from the former site¹ and a piece that sublimates radiators salvaged during the demolition into a symbol of truth spreading in all directions².
