Data visualization

Historically and politically, Colombia is at crossroads. After fifty years of internal war and conflict, it’s time to redefine/rethink our identity as a nation, the way we see ourselves and our international perception. I use AEC’s façade to visualize data showing a broad panorama of what was and is still going on in Colombia. The data come from several institutions and observers of the conflict and are meant to reflect the magnitude of the events through abstraction.
