Drilling A Well For Water

2003 Baltimore Museum of Art

 For this project a well was drilled in the Levi Sculpture Garden of the Baltimore Museum of Art. This activity was performed live during museum hours. The well reached the water table at 40 feet and a hand pump was installed. The 350 gallons of water from the well was added to the museum's heating and cooling system where it is permanently recycled to create both hot and cold air. This process produced the object Volume which is the volumetric space of the entire museum building.
