Religious differences are still at the root of many conflicts around the world. Due to lack of understanding of other religions, people create opinions leading to communal hatred and violence. The Interreligious Council in Bosnia and Herzegovina wanted to tackle prejudice and raise awareness of the importance of inter-religious dialogue. The objective was to bring Christians and Muslims closer, starting a positive conversation. With a very limited budget, we set out to initiate this project in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and gradually transcend to other countries in the Balkans region.

The One posters were adapted from various churches and mosques around the world. The Byzantine mosaics of Palatine Chapel of Italy were merged with the Girih pattern mosaics of Bibi Khanym Mosque in Uzbekistan. The stained glass windows from Selimiye Mosque in Turkey were merged with Cocteau’s stained glass windows of Église Saint-Maximin de Metz in France. The doors are inspired by the Hasan 2 Mosque of Morocco and San Augustin Church of Philipines. And the calligraphy has been brought together from the inscriptions on Wazir Khan Mosque in Pakistan and St. Martin's Church in England. Elements of both religions from different corners of the world were brought together on a poster which also became a sleeve for the One Book, a book that shows the similarities between the teachings of the Bible and the Quran.
