Joe Peace: A Peace Chain Reaction

"I was working at a friend's studio. I walked in and picked up these scraps of clay off the floor and made these pieces about softball size, maybe seven of them. For me they were small because I'd been making larger sculptural pieces. So I made these pieces and said to my friend, "It's a peace chain. I'm going to make it the rest of my life." The year was 1991, and true to his word Joe Murphy -- now known as Joe Peace -- has been making and gifting the world peace pendants ever since. He's made over half a million of them, each inscribed with the word 'peace' in one of 122 languages. More on this artist's unique journey here. { read more }
