Amelia Batchelor and myself with artworks visualising peace in the world, October 2020
Imagine a world of peace. On this upcoming 18th year of the lighting the Imagine Peace Tower in Iceland, I look back at my own peace activations.

My collage from 9 October 2019
Big ideas that start with a “what if?” What if we could build a lighthouse that streams the impulse of peace into the world for all to see. What would this look like? Yoko Ono and John Lennon imagined this into reality. They inspired me to bring the spirit of this Imagine Peace to Murwillumbah on Friday 9th October at 6pn ADST in conjunction with my exhibition Fire & Ice about Iceland. This event coincides with the annual lighting of the Imagine Peace Tower on Videy Island, near Reykjavik to commemorate John Lennon’s birthday.
