From Conflict To Peace

Text Message on the Left:
"IT IS OUR FIRM CONVICTION THAT THE VAST MAJORITY OF BOTH RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES LONG FOR PEACE, RECONCILIATION AND THE CHANCE TO CREATE A BETTER FUTURE FOR THEIR CHILDREN."
This statement underscores a shared desire across communities for peace and a brighter future, implying that the mural seeks to bridge divides rather than exacerbate them.

Imagery:
The mural depicts men standing with their backs to the viewer, facing a path leading toward a large building. This building is likely Stormont, the seat of the Northern Ireland Assembly, symbolising governance and the potential for political unity or progress.
The figures, standing on a cracked road marked with the words "PROGRESS," seem to represent ordinary people on a journey toward unity and reconciliation.
Barricades and concrete blocks at the bottom of the mural evoke the history of conflict, but they are now part of a backdrop rather than barriers, suggesting a move away from division.
Slogan at the Bottom Right:

"FROM CONFLICT TO PEACE," reinforces the mural's theme, focusing on the journey from past conflicts toward a peaceful future.
