Peace/Conflict

Description

Peace/Conflict Call For Art: What is peace? What is conflict? How do they co-exist? Peace may be defined as the absence of conflict. Alternatively, peace may be an oasis in the midst of conflict: a sunny room, a favorite treat in a quiet moment, the joy of interacting with friends, simple well-being, or active joy. Inner peace may transcend conflict, offering perspective in pursuit of outer peace. Conversely, conflict may be defined as the absence of peace. Turmoil, agitation, fear, anxiety, and discord, in the world or in personal relationships, may be a path to peace or to further conflict. When is conflict necessary to achieve peace? Is peace the ultimate goal? Your submission to Peace/Conflict may represent one or both of these concepts. We look forward to seeing broad interpretations of this theme.
