"Created by the Bell Family—Stephanie, Kevin, Ethan, and Asher—this interactive wooden jewelry box is a tribute to the tranquility of nature and the power of human connection. Drawing on their shared passion for environmental advocacy and ocean conservation, the family combined photography and painted hues to create a vibrant exterior inspired by personal symbols of peace like the ocean and animal harmony.

“The piece centers on a powerful sentiment by John Lennon: ‘Peace is something you make, do, and give away.’ Inside, a mirror reflects the viewer alongside the words ‘Something you are’, serving as a poignant reminder of our individual role in fostering global harmony. This work invites others to use it as a vessel for their own treasures or written reflections on what peace means to them.”

The Bell Family sent their jewelry box to their Global Art Project for Peace exchange group at the Davenport Perth Neighborhood Centre in Toronto, Canada.
