This 1 dimensional mosaic serves as a memorial for the life and believes of singer and songwriter John Lennon. It is designed to be read from above. The onlooker must slightly bow their head in order to view the memorial. At the center lies the word "Imagine," intended to refer back to Lennon's song Imagine. The song speaks of unity and "living in a world of peace." This mosaic is intended to commemorate not only the life of John Lennon, but his passion for love and peace. The fact that the mosaic was created on the floor and at the center of a walkway area is significant in that it evokes the audience to engage with it. Most memorials stand above and imposing, this memorial lies flat and welcoming.
