Priority Peace: Handle with Care

Initiative for Peace

Franck looked at the world around him and saw the conflict in Iraq in the news. “How about I make this an initiative for peace and make a statement. Peace can be at times very abstract to human beings. We all talk about peace and have peace signs, but we don’t really sit down and discuss it on an individual level. I wanted to challenge people by placing peace in the room as you would a television and question, 'What would you do if you had that there?' I want people to dialogue. It creates a whole discussion on art and peace. That’s when it came about to have the labels. I wanted to point out the fragility of these things and actually challenge people with their ability to influence change."
