Free the music. Free the people.
Yantra installs pianos in public places for the community to play. She believes accessible music and colour in the streets play a major role in our recovery in these unprecedented times, as we are being challenged to reassess our sense of belonging as a collective and diverse society.
In each location, Yantra gathers pianos, local musicians, choirs and artists. Together they create totally unique free outdoor performances, inspired by the land and people, the love of pianos and making music together.
At the heart of this project are music recycling and the importance of gifting, restoring and reinventing unwanted pianos.
In between programmed performances, the pianos are accessible to anyone who wishes to play. The public are encouraged to upload videos of themselves playing to our social media channels.
Yantra creates site specific artwork on each piano using a combination of watercolour, decoupage and mixed media. As a plein air water colourist she draws inspiration from the spirit of place, before concrete colonisation.
Film making and working with projections to create an added performance layer is a passion of Yantra’s. Her live performances are a visual and aural feast.
