Today in Northern Ireland walls separate historically contentious neighborhoods in the name of 'peace;' tripling in number since the 1998 Good Friday Peace Agreement. In this discussion, John Carson, head of the CMU School of Art, and Jennifer Keating-Miller, CMU Assistant Director of Undergraduate Research and National Fellowships, explore the work of literary and visual artists who describe, catalog or craft work that interrupts evidence of a fragile peace in the region's built environment, a peace that is contained as the population emerges from a legacy of violence in hard-fought efforts to build an integrated and democratic post-conflict society.
