Three hours, seven pianos....reflections on the soul of Geneva
In June 2014, the “Play Me, I’m Yours” project by artist Luke Jerram installed some 45 street pianos in the streets of 17 municipalities in the canton of Geneva, Switzerland and neighbouring France. The pianos were an inspiration to filmmaker Christopher Black and musician Pedro Delgado Simoes to make a video, shot in a short time frame of three hours, on as many pianos as possible.

Since July, puzzled commuters on platform one at Bristol Temple Meads train station have been able to see a lone figure of a young school girl in the distance. On closer inspection, the girl fractures and turns into blocks. She is the work of Luke Jerram, a colour-blind artist who creates work on and researches optical illusions and visual perception. The young girl is based on a scan of Jerram’s daughter, Maya, which is also the name of the sculpture.
Maya was scanned using an X-box Kinect and equipment at Machine Vision Laboratory in Bristol. The scan was then pixelated into squares called voxels. Precision-cut aluminium formed the bulk of the sculpture, with more than 5,000 square stickers, measuring 12mm each, carefully applied to the aluminium to create the finished piece.
