Our American Political Maze

This current mid-terms election has, I think, left most of us baffled, if not a little horrified. It’s hard not to think we’re stuck in a maze that we’ll never find our way out of.

I wanted to work up a visual to reflect our current morass and turning the flag’s red stripes into a maze seemed a natural fit. I initially had two versions; one in which you could move from right to left (or vice versa) and a second in which it was impossible to do so. Hope I’m not being naive but I chose the former.

I posted another version online (shown below) to encourage everyone to vote.

This was done using Illustrator.
