EIDOLA: weiland Pianist, 1940, is part of a series of 24 drawings created by Swiss painter Paul Klee. In these works, Klee portrays the souls of musicians who, despite losing their instruments, continue to play music using their own bodies. In Pianist, the black keys of the piano keyboard are integrated into the body, leaving the white keys invisible.
The Pianist Console represents not the piano itself, but the hands of the artist — the vehicle for both technique and emotion. Brass blades in the design mimic the pianist’s fingers, and on the white marble surface, they release a melody hidden in the musical notes.
"I started playing the piano at the age of nine and have known the keyboard by heart. Once my hands are on the keys, I stop seeing the cadence of the black and white keys and focus on the gracefulness of my fingers gliding over them." — Joana Santos Barbosa
