Keys of Unity
In 2023, across the face of the planet, enormous sculptures of twisted keys will appear in public spaces - giant, awe-inspiring conversation pieces, in a world badly in need of open dialogue.
The brainchild of renowned artist Alfred ‘Milot’ Mirashi, The Keys of Unity will become a historical symbol, opening doors to experience cultures, and encouraging dialogue between people. A highly visible project on a global scale - from Boston to Brisbane; from Sao Paulo to Seoul, the keys are a worldwide call to action.
This is not just public sculpture, but a youth project, a design opportunity, a forum for debate, and a space for culture.
and this is how we start the conversation…
The Project
There will be three touring keys - for the Americas (The Dream Key), Europe (The Key of Today), and Asia (The Water Key) - all measuring around 30 meters long and 10 meters high, reaching about 20 cities with a 3 month stay in each.
There will also be 12 'permanent' keys, every one of them uniquely designed, using local materials.
Each unveiling will be a huge occasion: a music event, TED Talks, and, for the touring keys, the Passport Stamp Award Event - an award given to a young artist (18 yrs or younger) in the exhibiting city, where their winning design for a passport stamp will be lasered on to the sculpture.
We start in Naples on March 29th.
Key of Today
Europe Tour
The “Key of Today” sculpture symbolizes life, the rebirth of a society open to everything and everyone, dialogue, confrontation, and a world in which there is possibility and potential for all. The Artist Milot wants this to be a universal ‘cry’ of mutual respect between people, so that they live in peace with each other, and so there are no more closed and distant places. The Key of Today will be placed in Naples, Italy for 3 months and will travel across Europe to 20 different cities.

Passport Stamp
Design Award
The Passport Stamp Award will be given to a young artist (18 years or younger) in the exhibiting city, with the creation of a winning design for a passport stamp which would then be lasered on to the sculpture.
The first award will be presented at the inaugural event in Napoli March 29, 2023.
Team Unity
Keys of Unity has chosen influential individuals from the next generation to be the ambassadors & voices of this global project. During the tours, Team Unity will speak at each event on an individually chosen platform where they wish to unlock dialogue: mental health, leadership, environment, humanism, & peace.
