Lorde released a music video for her song "Man Of The Year," the second single from her upcoming album *Virgin*. The video features the singer in a room filled with dirt, which fans quickly noted resembles Walter De Maria's iconic installation *New York Earth Room*. Lorde has acknowledged the homage, describing the work as an inspiration for the song's sound and her personal rebirth. The video was not filmed in the actual installation, which is permanently housed in SoHo and managed by the Dia Art Foundation.

Lorde's new single "Man of the Year" from her upcoming album *Virgin* (released June 27) features a music video that visually references Walter De Maria's *New York Earth Room* (1977), a minimalist installation of 280,000 pounds of soil filling a SoHo loft. The video shows Lorde stripping, taping her breasts, and rolling in dirt, while the song's lyrics explore her fluid gender identity. Lorde also cites Italian artist Lucio Fontana and includes an X-ray cover image by photographer Heji Shin.
