Democracy & Ethics – Visual Art
Deadline
Using the medium of your choice, interpret the concept of democracy. Consider President Abraham Lincoln's "government of the people, by the people, for the people." Take it in whatever direction best conveys your message. It could be a realistic photograph or an imaginative illustration.
