Peace

The brief is simple: imagine peace. Show us what peace looks like, what it could be, or what it needs to exist. Anything goes as long as your idea fits on a 24″ x 36″ poster.

My poster submission for the Bed-In for Peace contest. 

I've redefined the wifi symbol, making it symbolic of an outward reach, creating stillness in a seemingly dark world. The water fading out from dark ripples to this serene brightness is representative of enlightenment. I play on this idea of the inner self and how it can affect the environment we live in. We don't react but we respond thoughtfully. When we achieve stillness within, we can then collectively create a stronger connection.

I was inspired by acknowledging that peace and freedom begins from who we are as an individual. We can't control external forces but we can choose to be a being of unconditional love. Love reverberating throughout time and space. Unity with those around us is likely possible when we are the change we want to see.

May we continue to heal ourselves so that our world may exist without harm amongst people.

Update:

Although my submission didn't make it into top 40, I'm super proud and excited that my collaboration with fellow pal, Jake made it! (See right).
