The Office wished for a painting from our concept “Children and youth paint for peace and friendship between people and nations”. Even Brevik, 12 years old, went to Oslo and handed over the painting himself. He was one of 17 participants from Bindal municipality on the “Peacepainting tour” in Tunisia in 2011, and he had painted the picture there.His text for the painting: “ONE STAR can look like a gleam of light, but is really a whole solar system. A number of solar systems become a galaxy, and a number of galaxies become a universe. That means that something that is small can become something big.”
Jens Stoltenberg and Even Brevik
