In this article, it is argued that In polarization, we fixate on two poles, like true and false, news versus fake news, real versusfalse, or in a social context, rich versus poor, and good versus bad. This is an instance of singular thinking, because a third factor is overlooked, being the area between the two poles, where the polarized elements come from. The gap, divide or rift, is in fact an area. With growth at the poles, polarization, instead of fixating on the poles, one should also look at the intermediate area, the mainstream area.

This chapter addresses how pictures and storytelling can be applied to create more empathy and outlines a specific methodology. In the framework of a European Erasmus+ project, a methodology was developed to create more contact between individuals of polarized groups of youngsters in 5 European countries: Lithuania, Estonia, Spain, North Macedonia, and the Netherlands. In this project, entitled Picture Your Story (PicS), the essential elements of sharing a story in conflict transformation work were explored, as well as the additional value of using pictures and the role of empathy in that specific context. In this chapter the actual PicS methodology is explained and described.
