An Installation, on site, composed of baskets and crates on waist high tables offering musical instruments while supermarket music wafts through the space.

An art project is full of possibilities. For the artist, it may mean expanding on a theme. For the venue it may mean expanding an audience.

Installation Art is especially transcending as viewers actually step out of their usual space and enter an artist’s space. Musical instruments are great public art components, not only because they are beautiful objects but because a lot of people count personal experience with music in their memory banks. Comments heard when I exhibited Perfect Harmony (a piece composed of piano parts) in Art Loop Open Chicago 2011 were: “I studied piano” “My brother is a piano tuner” “You’re from Crystal Lake?!”
