A VISUAL RESPONSE - INITIAL IDEAS
I thought that it was a rather peculiar, yet an interesting task. I didn't think that creating a visual response of certain topics would be challenging. Though I'm honestly not sure where I would go with visually representing politics as it is a rather translucent subject.

Ideas/Concepts
Topic: POLITICS
Line - barbed wires, boundaries (where authorities draw the line?), authority/power (follows blindly/their opinions are the most significant, hence is what the public listens to, like a straight line), weight of an opinion/law/rule (who's right and who's wrong?)
Shape - minimalistic (propaganda posters or symbols for political parties), democracy (collections of shapes/objects), abstract or vague information (visualised through obscure /abstract shapes), political correctness (shaping people's minds to a certain idea)
Colour - solid block colours (Red and Yellow for the Communist party, Green for Islamic groups), translucent (censorship), transparency, right or wrong, the grey area (vagueness)
Collage - conflicting opinions, views or values (collaging different materials or media to represent different voices/thoughts), democracy (collection of things, majority)
