In Partnership with

Across the globe, people and schools are uniting in one powerful mission: to break a Guinness World Record and raise millions for charity.

The Kolisi Mosaic Project

A world-first art experience.
A collective legacy.
A moment to be part of something greater.

 

The Kolisi Mosaic Project brings together thousands—ultimately millions—of individual photographs to create breathtaking, large-scale mosaic artworks that celebrate the spirit, identity, and unity of South Africa.

THE VISION

From a distance, each mosaic reveals powerful and iconic South African imagery, including:
  • Nelson Mandela
  • The African continent
  • A rhino
  • Table Mountain
  • The South Africa national rugby union team

Up close, every single photograph remains visible—each one representing an individual story, a memory, or a tribute.

Together, these images form something far greater than themselves:
a powerful reminder that every person matters.

A WORLD RECORD IN THE MAKING

As part of this initiative, the project aims to achieve a Guinness World Records title for:

The most people ever to participate in a photographic mosaic exhibition.

 

Every submission becomes a permanent part of this historic artwork—creating a legacy that will be seen, shared, and remembered for generations.

  • A permanent place in a world-class photographic mosaic artwork
  • The opportunity to honour someone or something meaningful through their image
  • Participation in a record-breaking global initiative
