| The ICU project
explores solutions to border conflicts around the world in order
to create greater understanding between people and global unity.
Currently there are many places across the globe where physical
and metaphorical "walls” or "fences" exist
between conflicting nations. These external walls are actual metaphors
for the internal walls of fear that keep us separate and unable
to truly "see" one another. In order to create harmony
among the societies of our world, we must find creative solutions
that enable us to dismantle our own internal walls so that these
external walls may altogether disappear.
The ICU's first project uses film, music, art and the Internet as
a way of creating alternative solutions to these conflicts and creates
a forum for expression, which serves to unite rather than divide.
The ICU project includes the film: Without
Walls, a Global Soundtrack, the website: I See You, and the
exhibit: Peace of the Wall.
