Light and music collided in in this installation, suitably named ‘The Enlightening Piano’. Placed on a small stage and encased in a perspex box, each of the piano’s keys were attached to lights that varied in colour and intensity, so when played, it offered an extraordinary show of tunes and light. The stage also lit up with different colours that are linked to the music being played. It proved a very popular attraction for all ages and levels of musical skill at Vivid.
Steensen Varming donated The Enlightening Piano to Arranounbai School, an institution for disabled children encouraging learning through art, music, and technology to empower the children and enhance the ability to communicate across all environments.
