Label TextCreated for the Agronomy Building, Untitled I and Untitled II reference the influence that people have had on plants, specifically food-producing plants. Humans have altered the external physical conditions of these organisms, resulting in selective growth, limiting the diversity of naturally occurring species. However, the tornado in Untitled I is a powerful and sobering reminder of our lack of control when it comes to the weather.
