our senses are tools that help our mind interact with the outside world. piano marina is a metaphor of this relationship. inside studio 5 of miami city ballet‘s building, a six-hour long performance takes place at the piano. the acoustic sounds are heard unaltered inside the room. a pendulum microphone is used to broadcast these gentle sounds out to the street. those outside looking in or passing by, are presented with a hyper real, amplified version of what is happening inside.
