Just try un-seeing the image of an old, emaciated man with a piano in his back. That’s the point in Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity’s “Piano” spot, which see a young pianist open the back of the old man to reveal a piano where his spine should be. As he plays, instead of traditional notes, a tribal sound emerges from the old man’s mouth, causing the pianist to shed
a single tear. It’s just weird.
