The Missing Piece - Iowa Methodist Organ Donor Wall
“The Missing Piece” is a puzzle constructed of shaped and polished stainless steel metal panels that are meant to feel like they are in the process of being assembled. As each distinct puzzle fragment slowly finds its defined place, visitors quickly discover that they are participating in the piece as they witness their own reflection in the mirrored finish and are able to contemplate the idea that they can play a role in saving someone’s life via organ donation. The colored plexiglass panels offer an opportunity for awareness through thought provoking quotes or simple inspiring testimonies that speak to others experiences, while the background image shows that this process is an ongoing one with an infinite number of puzzle pieces waiting to fall into place.
