Description from the artist regarding their vision of peace:
Effective communication is key to creating peace; it could be a kind word to a stranger, a protest against injustice, and a peace treaty between countries or simply communicating your feelings to friends or loved ones. Words hold so much power and being part of the peace project and seeing the amazing work Lisa and Heidi have accomplished reminds me of what Robert Kennedy once said....

Each time a person stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, these ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.
