Yoko Ono has broadcast a message of peace across global billboards.
The 89-year-old artist’s message – “Imagine Peace” – is on display in London, Berlin, Los Angeles, Melbourne, Milan, New York and Seoul.
The installation, which features local translations of the mantra, will be broadcast at 8.22pm every night in March.

The billboards have been installed with Circa in collaboration with Serpentine.
A limited-edition Yoko Ono print is also being sold, with all proceeds being donated to the United Nations Central Emergency Response Fund.
It comes 53 years after peace activists Ono and her late husband Beatles star John Lennon staged their first Bed-In, a week-long protest from their honeymoon suite demonstrating their commitment to social justice.
