    Zoön Politikon | 2017

For Zoön Politikon I went to investigate what is the everage face per political party in the Netherlands. I came about doing this after watching prejudices grow about the supporters of each political party during the elections of 2017, which distorted many debates. I wanted to know what was true about these prejudices. I collected 1.000 faces via social media of people who mentioned that they were supportive of a specific political party. Then a put all these faces on top of one another to create average faces.
