Painting A Piano For A Live Art Project For Melbourne Hotel “LYF”

Category: Unique Shaped Murals

For the opening of Lyf On Elizabeth Street in Melbourne CBD, I was invited to live paint a piano as part of their launch night celebrations. The owners discovered my work while walking through the laneways of Melbourne and wanted to bring an authentic street art presence into their new hotel space.

On the night, I transformed the piano in front of guests using my signature flowing line work and vibrant colour palette. The same style seen throughout Melbourne’s famous laneways. Live painting at corporate openings and hotel launches creates an immersive experience for visitors, turning a blank surface into a centrepiece artwork in real time. The finished piano now sits as a permanent installation inside the hotel, giving guests an interactive artwork they can play and engage with long after the event.

Why Be Bland?

This project is a strong example of how live art can elevate a Melbourne event, hotel opening or corporate activation. Painting the piano live allowed guests to connect with the creative process while adding energy, colour and movement to the space.

If you're looking to hire a Melbourne live painter for a product launch, brand activation, hotel opening, festival or private event, I specialise in creating large-scale murals and interactive artworks that blend street art aesthetics with refined, site-specific design. Whether it’s a piano, feature wall or custom installation piece, I create vibrant, engaging artwork that leaves a lasting impression and becomes a permanent talking point within your space.
