Image: A film photograph of Maya Dunietz’s Root of Two installation at Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts. A grainy, dark photograph shows two pianos on the far right side of the composition. At the bottom right lies a piano on its back. The piano keys are facing upwards, and the black keys blend in with the rest of the piano’s dark features. The other piano is oriented conventionally above. There are no visible characteristics of the piano sitting upright. To the left of both pianos are seven black chords on the ground. Five of the chords create a track or musical bar from the bottom left of the image, extending to the top right of the photo. There are two chords that appear to be connected to both pianos in the photograph. Photo by the author.
