An interview with Bill Dilworth who has cared for the NY Earth Room for 19 years.
“An interior earth sculpture.
250 cubic yards of earth (197 cubic meters)
3,600 square feet of floor space (335 square meters)
22 inch depth of material (56 centimeters)
Total weight of sculpture: 280,000 lbs. (127,300 kilos)”
Another interview from 1993, in the NYT. When I finally make it back to NYC, I’m definitely stopping by 141 Wooster St.
