Hi, I am a middleclass American computer graphic designer (advertising), art/photo instructor in high school, perpetual student, babyboomer, former political activist turned spiritualist, and world traveler having a foot in Artsednet and now in Art4Peace. I am interested in symbology as a method of conveying the message of peace and freedom under repression.

I agree that freedom of expression coupled with responsibility of the expressor to stand for freedom promotes peace. The message of repression on the otherhand, is self defeating and therefore defeats the progress of society thereby causing war between repressor and the repressed. Peace is won often with the blood of the seeker and learned through the initiation of fire. (symbolically speaking that is). Truth of art is in the eye of the beholder. "Beauty is truth, truth beauty." Keats (1795-1821)

I look forward to chatting with you towards art and peace and relevant topics.
Peri
