Christopher Janney has been working on his “Urban Musical Instrument” series since 1978, beginning with SoundStair On Tour. These pieces embody Janney’s belief that art should be an integral part of one’s everyday life. “I think it is important to create public art which has multiple layers. Some elements might be revealed upon an initial encounter, others will be discovered and revealed to the curious passerby over time. I am always interested, through my artwork, to allow people to interact with one another and their environment—in a sense I create public instruments which the community can play. ”
