Political Landscape, 2007

Created for the Win-Win exhibition in Ottawa

 

This line graph charts the percentage voter turnout for all elections held in Britain (blue), France (brown), Canada (grey) and the United States (green)
since the end of WWII. Through the middle of the century, a time when the West held up democracy as a bulwark against communism and the evils
 of the East, we see a slow and steady decline in the voter participation. The graph resembles a minimalist landscape.
